He's here!  

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
Baby's name: Kevin Matthew
birth Date: February 26, 2007
EDD: April 12, 2007
Weight: 4 lbs 2 oz
Length: 17 in

My water broke on Feb 15 around 11, I was induced the morning of his birth because I had a uterine infection, otherwise he would have stayed in there longer. Right now he's in the NICU, but he's perfectly healthy. He didn't have any problems until yesterday morning when they discovered jaundice. But they caught it early, so they are hoping its gone today. They said he will come home as soon as he takes the bottle well, they are gonna start feeding him by bottle today, and as soon as his temperature stays stable, so it shouldn't be too long now.

I am trying to breastfeed, but I've only gotten 1 oz one time, other than that I've gotten nothing but drops, but I'm continually pumping hoping to get my milk supply started.

If you go to this entry: http://ladygaia87.livejournal.com/98523.html on my personal journal, there's pics of him there.

Congratulations mama!! Enjoy your beautiful little boy! You know, my milk came in slowly at first too. I was only able to pump an ounce or so each time I tried. But after a few weeks, it came in full force! I'm sure you'll be fine. Take care of yourself and get some rest if you are able. Happy babymoon!

Congrats to you. I'm glad your little one is doing ok. Hopefully he'll be home real soon. Be sure to check out our Case Against Circumcision board here at Mothering. It's got a lot of great information about the dangers of circ & how to care for an intact penis.

Congrats again!
