Cathcing Up as Usual
So, we've been busy for the last few months. Elizabeth was born on September 5, 2010 @11:13pm. She weighed 5lbs 3oz and measured 20 1/4" long. She was born emergency csection because her heart rate dropped. She was born not breathing and had to be intubebated. I was rushed into the OR and they couldn't get my epidural to work. So I got feel EVERY cut and pull. I finally passed out before they knocked me out. I didn't know what happened until I woke up @6:30am the next morning. Elizabeth stayed in the NICU for only 4 days. She turned around very quickly in under 24 hours. The doctors said it was a miracle that she lived. After researching the details leading up to my delivery, it was determined that my bag of water had sprung a leak 3 weeks prior to birth. She was very lucky to survive! We kept her out of public for a couple of weeks. But she proves to us that she's here to stay. Her weight has been an issue. She is trying to gain but seems to have hit a little plateau. She is doing fine health wise. Personally I think she's got Gary's metabolism. She looks exactly like Jake only a girl version :) Emily and Elizabeth are very similar in looks also. But she is our first baby to be born with blonde hair. It has a red undertone too! I think she's beautiful. I will post some pictures on the blog as soon as I get them transferred to the computer with Internet...lol.
