The next day with my healthy baby and no more I.V.
Her cry was music to my ears
Her poor, sore, head. It hurt her to lay down.

Nurses and R.T. working on her
Our first family photo after 12 hours of labor and 1 1/2 hours pushing. I only got to hold her for a minute before they had to take her.

Can you say "epidural"?
Can you say "epidural"?We are so happy to have this new addition in our family. She is such a good baby! Things were a little iffy when she first arrived. Her head was turned sideways and I was having to push out the biggest part of her head. The dr. couldn't get it turned manually so we had to use the vaccuum. She ended up have some trauma to head-it ripped the skin and she has a big red bruise. Once her head turned she came right out but the cord was wrapped so tightly around her neck that she was white, limp, not breathing, and there was no heartbeat. The respitory team and nurses worked on her for what seemed like forever while we waited to hear her cry. That is the scariest feeling and one I will never forget. When she finally started to cry, it was instant relief. I only got to hold her for a minute to take a picture before she was rushed away to be observed. They started an IV and after about 3 hours she perked up and we were able to really see her for the first time. I know that Heavenly Father must have special mission for her to fulfill because she could have easily died but it was not her time to go. Now, because of her head trauma she is battling jaundice but hopefully it will be over soon. Welcome home Alli!
