We’re home!
Welcome our beautiful son, Talon Gregory.
Boy oh boy that was not the hospital trip I planned! The c/s went just fine even though I was so worried. We got our boy and everyone was so surprised. They only showed me the baby over the sheet for .4 seconds. I told my husband it was okay to let go of my hand and go to the baby, make sure it really was a he and all was good.
The next day or two was uneventful really. Talon and I developed something called Coombs factor, this happened sometime between 24 and 39 weeks. It is a blood “disorder” similar to the Rh factor. Anyhow, it can cause serious jaundice for Talon and would affect any subsequent pregnancies for me, although there won’t be any of those ♥
Talon has been under the lights for several days. Me, something a bit more odd. After my c/s my GI tract just decided not to function. Everything I ate came up a couple of hours later with severe pain as you can imagine after a c/s. This started about 2 days in. I was so sick! I had to be on an IV again and oxygen along with anti-nausea meds and morphine. It was really bad and very painful.
We were released on Saturday and all is mostly good now although I am still nervous about my body and on a mostly liquid diet. Talon is still going in everyday to get his bilirubin checked.
Our whole family is super excited to add a new baby boy to our home. What a thrill it was to tell everyone.
I just made this quick collage of Talon & some family. These are the only pic’s I have uploaded so far.
A very exciting home we have. I feel very lucky and blessed to make it though this journey and to finally have our son home in our arms. ♥ YAY♥
