Hi everyone!
I thought things were going great when mommy went to the hospital and they told her she was already at 5cm. Poor mommy had to wait forever to get any pain medicine and by the time she got an epidural she was around 7 to 8cm. She finally got to the point of pushing and we both thought it wouldn't be long but after 3 hours of pushing and very little progress, mommy's temp was rising and my heart rate was going way up (not to mention that I had a bm so when the doctor broke mommy's water there was a ton of meconium which the doctor was worried about), mommy had to have a c-section so I could come out. Well, come to find out I was just way too big to get out of mommy any other way...I was a really healthy 9lbs 4oz! I am really sorry mommy had to have surgery. The boob milk lady (lactation consultant) said it may have played a part in why I don't latch on when she tries to feed me. Not to mention mommy doesn't have the ideal anatomy for me and my tongue moves around too much in my mouth. That's why I lost 14oz in the first 6 days of my life. But mommy is pumping milk for me now and I am on my way back up to my birth weight, my cheeks are plumping back up and I am a happy healthy boy!
