HELLO!!!
I am back (from hospital that is). thanks for thinking about us.
William was born on Tuesday at around 1pm, via scheduled c-section. After 4 weeks of contractions, my cervix was not effacing or thinning at all. When i got to the hospital and they hooked me to the monitors the residents freaked out because i was having contractions every 3min LOL and they thought i was in active labor LOL… but no.
William was 7lbs 12 ounces and he is a screamer… he was crying for 30min while they were sewing me up.
I was in ICU for about 3 hours while they tried to regulate my body temperature… i could just not do it on my own i guess. So they took the baby away to the nursery and he did not stop crying until they fed him… maybe we will get lucky this time. By the time i was in recovery, he had been fed 2 bottles!!
He has been doing great, feeding wise. Is on Alimentum and eating every 3-4 hours a couple of ounces with no issues for now… we are all praying. He does have a strong suck though… something Matthew did not have, so that is a big difference.
We got home this afternoon… Matthew is clingy and crying for daddy all of the time and cries everytime i hold William… it is going to take a while for him to adapt (SIGH).
Thanks again for thinking about us!!

It’s so good to hear that everything went well and that little William is doing well. I hope things continue to go well and that Matthew starts adjusting to the change. Poor guy!
