What a week! We are now home and adjusting rather well. I thought I'd post while in the hospital; however, the c-
section, breastfeeding, and lack of sleep took priority. I'm recovering pretty well. I'm sore, have staples, but am somewhat mobile. Erik is AMAZING and has been there with me the whole time! So Brady entered the world at 5:12pm weighing 9lbs 2oz. There was some confussion about 9-2 or 9-3, but hospital finally decided on 9-2. He was 20.6 in. long with a healthy set of lungs. The doctor had to make a bigger cut than normal because she couldn't get him to come out (he was butt first). Brady is a GREAT baby. He really doesn't fuss much aside from the ocassional gas or hunger spell that we don't catch. My milk came in today, so we are on a roll with that. I'm a little sore, but working on the latch. On a sad note, we had to put Kadie down today. She had been with Cam for the two days and just wasn't improving; she got to the point of not being able to walk much at all. Although this was hard for all of us, we know that she wasn't happy anymore. She wasn't 'our' Kadie from a month ago. But we've got a new little man to tend to now and will have our hands full.
