Jonah Sly was born via unplanned c section at 5:55pm 8/6/09, weighing 9 lbs 1 oz and measuring 21.5". I was in labor since the previous afternoon and in the hospital since 9pm the previous night. Everything that could deviate from my birth preferences did, but it is all forgotten as I now sit here with this beautiful little man. We'll get out of the hospital tomorrow, and I'm looking forward to the extra 2 weeks of leave I get with a c-section. DH (laid off early last month) also fell into a great job opportunity yesterday. If he gets it, he will take care of baby Jonah in the daytime and work in the evenings while I work in the daytime with time for precious Jonah at night. Our life together is looking up.
Congratulations Sunshyn! I love the name you chose for your lil guy! I'm sorry that your birth didn't go as planned, but you're right...its good to let it go when the outcome (healthy mom & healthy baby) is exactly right!
Enjoy your babymoon!
I'm sorry things didn't go as planned, but so glad you have youre beautiful babe and are feeling good! Yay for babies and double yay for parental life looking up too!
