Hey Ladies!! I changed my pic to Aidan, I'm having trouble posting pics in my profile. I had Aidan Thomas on 6/20, at 12:56 pm. He was 7lbs, 3 oz and 20 in long. Thanks to my labor buddy, katbrian052108 for updating everyone! Had such an unexpected birth...DH and I went walking sunday 6/19 a few times. On my way back the last time I had started with contractions 4 min apart, then 2 minutes! We went inside and I sat down...still contracting at 6 min apart for over an hour. I called my ob and she sent me in. Contractions were every 4 min, but no dilation:( So they decided to keep me overnight and check things out. Aidan's heart rate was lower than they liked, so in the morning they sent me to the perinatologist for an ultrasound, which thankfully is in the same hospital I was at. Ultrasound said his fluid was WAY too high, and he scored a 2/10 on his biophysical profile. This was 11:45 am 6/20. I had to have a repeat c-section bc it was too dangerous to perform a VBAC. By 12:30, I was in the operating room, by 12:56 Aidan was out! He was so perfect! In and out of recovery in two hours. Now, we are home feeling great and enjoy our new little boy! Good luck to the rest of you ladies for healthy babies and easy deliveries!
