Broccolitree

You were asking about me :)

Well, just because you wanted to know I will fill you in. I had a........... GIRL! Her name is Evangeline Patricia (I hate the middle name, but it was in honor of DH's aunts) and she was born one day after my due date. I went in for my 40 week appointment, had a biophysical profile done and found out that my amniotic fluid had been leaking for quite some time. They aren't sure when my water broke, but it had ruptured so slightly that I was possibly leaking for weeks and just didn't realize it was AF. 21 hours of pitocin later and she still wouldn't come out and I ended up with a c/s. I only dilated to 3cm, her head was caught in the birth canal, and we were at risk for infection.

I'll have to post a few pictures later. I can't do it from my Mac. She's the sweetest little thing ever, and I'm so in love with her.

And, I miss you. Just wanted to let you know :)

  • aw, thanks!   I feel so loved!  (not being sarcastic, for once, lol).

    aw boo to c/s, aw yay to girl!  We ended up having a girl, too, also via c-section (though really dramatically, and on Christmas Eve, siiiigh) and H's dad is still asking us whether we knew or not, forrealsies.

    How are the stepkids doing?  And, most importantly, how are you doing?  Are you coping alright?  I was honestly a bit concerned when you dropped off completely, but I figured you followed onto FB or somebody would've paged you, heh.

    We have dr appt and 2nd round of shots later today, so if I don't get back to you immediately that's why.
