I am finally here!! I arrived 10 days early due to mommy getting a stomach virus that put her into labor. She arrived at the hospital around 3:30 pm on Valentine's Day and the doctor decided that she needed to stay since she was in very early labor. She was finally moved to a labor room and given an epidural,which never worked on the right side of her body (I really started to be a little pain). By 4:30 am she was really struggling with the pain and they came in to try to help her as best they could. By the time the dr decided to redo the epidural, it was too late. I was on my way into the world. Mommy started pushing around 6 am and I was born at 7:03 am. I weighed 6lbs. and 6 oz. and was 20 inches long. Since mommy spiked a fever of 103 while laboring with me I had to go to the nursery for some antibiotics after a quick cuddle. I was fine but the dr. just wanted to make sure. I have my first dr appointment on March 1 with Dr. Lacy. I will be very upset when I have to get my shots but mommy will cuddle with me and make it all better. My first week home has been pretty good. My daddy makes my bottles and my mommy feeds me while we snuggle together. I have a great big sister, Lauren, that always wants to help with all my needs. So far life is good!! I will keep you updated as I continue to grow.
Love,
Matthew
