Hospital

Day 2 of mom of 4.  Hospital is boring, but also busy with all the checks and things.  Nurses coming in and out.  Breast feeding isn't going well, Evelyn doesn't seem at all interested.  She refuses to even try.  I am not a big fan of BFing any way so I am thinking about switching to bottle for my sanity.  It might be the best thing for both of us.  I hope to get my IV out soon, I hate this wire!

Baby time!

Today we got up super early, to be at the hospital at 5:30 to get ready for the C-section.  We got all prepped and then it was time to go.  The surgery went well, I had a mild reaction to the spinal, my face got red/ itchy and a bit swollen but no harm done and baby Evie was born at 7:55am on Nov 1, 2017.  She was 19 inches long and weighed 7lbs 14 oz.  We got all squared away in our room and mom picked up the kids to come see us and meet their sister.  All the kids were over the moon to meet her.  James was so excited about how "tiny" she is.  The kids all got to hold her and they were in heaven.  I am in pain, and tired but glad that everything went well.
