Our usually quiet house of 3 right now has 12 people in it. Really no rest for the weary! We have to be at the hospital at 6 am. Hopefully, will have baby in our arms by early afternoon. I will post asap hopefully, with a pic. Congrats on finding out how much longer - I know for me the first 8 months and 2 weeks flew by but this last week has taken every minute soooooo slowly. Best wishes and my prayers are with ya. Has your bm settled down at all? Is she more relaxed about everything since her last appt? Will update as soon I can. Thanks for your prayers.

Dr. said to start praying her down because if she checks her at 3 and she still hasn't dialated past 4 we are going to have to start to schedule a c section. Her pitocin is at the max amount and she needs to dialate. So please pray that Abigail moves on down the canal. Thanks in advance, Kim Kimberlee Jo wife to Jim sahm proud to be Abigail's mommy

It took her from delivery at 4:06 to 9 pm before I finally gave in and fed her via an avent bottle. Nurses are saying because of the trauma of the difficult delivery to keep trying just that she's pretty bruised and sore. So we're gonna give it another go in the a.m. http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h74/KIMJIMBO/?action=view&current=abigail3.jpg http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h74/KIMJIMBO/?action=view&current=abigail.jpg http://s61.photobucket.com/albums/h74/KIMJIMBO/?action=view&current=abigail2.jpg Kimberlee Jo wife to Jim sahm proud to be Abigail's mommy

Nurses are great at nursing, but if you are having troubles get a lactation consultant right away to help get her latched. Lactation consultants will give better advice in this area. THere should be one on staff at the hospital, if not get one in on your own. It's better to get her going right away... Congrats again!! She's beautiful and you all look so happy!!
