It was all worth it in the end with the birth of our son.
I know I have been MIA for a while but I've had alot of issues going on at home and then I was admitted into the hospital 2 weeks before I gave birth with Ecoli and a Bad Uti. After I was released my blood pressure wouldn't stay down at all so on August 8th we decided it was time and had our Csection.
Elijah Victor was born at 1:39pm and I was so in love from the moment I saw him! I was able to hold him right away and nursed him in the recovery room. He roomed in with me and never saw the nursery. He still issues with his right kidney, but they ruled all the major problems and they are just going to watch it for now.
He feeds like a champ, he has been my easiest to BF. I can't believe how easy it has been this time around. He is not fussy at all so far and just loves to be held and cuddled which I love to do too.
Here are some pics of him...
This is him just mere moments after being born

He's getting weighed. He was a big boy. He weighed 8 pds 10 oz and was 22 inches long.

This is all three of us together for the first time. I looked so drugged up in this picture but at the same time, this is one of the happiest moments of my life.

I just love this one, but he hated that nurse.

He's trying to figure out what just happened.

I hope everyone else is doing well. I haven't really read here in a while, so I have alot of catching up to do!

Your family chose a good name for you. You are so lucky the hospital let you stay with your mother.
