After going into labor with Lil' Man at 23 weeks and then again at 34 weeks, we couldn't wait to meet the little person that was so ready to be here. I spent 3 days in the hospital at Helen Keller trying to have my labor stopped. Once it finally stopped and my blood pressures went down, I was sent home to bed rest.
These are pictures from my iPhone from my bed in the hospital of my babies. |
After this fun, we reported upstairs for me to be monitored. My blood pressures were sky high and I was a little crampy, but who wouldn't be when trying to have a needle pulled through their stomach. I was given medicine and my pressure eventually came down. I received word that the amnio results were negative for maturity, but they were "a high negative", so they were close to positive and with my blood pressure as high as it was and him pulling on the needle the doctor decided he couldn't repeat the amnio, so he decided to deliver him the next day.
We reported to ECM at 10:00 am the next day. Of course I was nervous, but I was ready to meet this already trouble maker. We were told to bring the camera, so of course this excited me, as I love pictures. I told my husband I wanted a ton of pictures because I wouldn't be able to see anything. Now, keep in mind this is what I said, I didn't really think this was what I was going to get. However, I have to say when I saw the pictures that he took I couldn't be any prouder of him than I was at that moment. I felt as if I was there, and I will have these pictures forever. Now, I have to say they may be a bit graphic to those with a weak stomach, but here are a few of them.
My husband, ready to go in |
