Sorry, I couldn't let anyone know.... I forgot to add my ddb number into my phone! I started having contractions on the 12th and they go worse so I went into the Dr. They told me I was dehydrated and tried to stop the labor that way but they were getting stronger and already a 12 at 100%. She then decided to give me some kind of shot to stop it but right when she walked out the room my water broke... so that was it! He was born almost 4 hours later with 1 and a half pushes and they put him right on my chest!!! Charlie was there and we both bawled like babies! He was only 35 and a half weeks so they had the nicu there waiting but he seemed to be ablsolutel fine. Bc of my GD they wanted to give him a bottle bc his blood sugar waslow and when he tried to drink I noticed he turned blue... so they took him away. I didn't get to sleep until 6 an then woke up at 7. Theyhadto stick a feedingtube down his nose but it got taken out yesteday! Hes nw heating like a piggy every three hours but hes still there and I was released today I've been pumping every three hours but can't get hardly anything... I just came back from seeing him and they wanted to do a brain activity test on him bc his dad had a seizure in te hospital the day after he was born... it was awful. I have to call tonight to see if he gets tocome home saturday or sunday so my fingers are crossed. Hs very healthy tho an weighed in at 6 10 and 19 inchs long... I love him so oooo much. Its been really hard emotionally and physically. Charlie stayed wih me the whole time and is now with me an we're slowly trying to work things out... Ahton hasn't ee gotten to see him yet! Everybody please pray foor my lttle Cam... I believe he'll be ok but it still sucks to have your baby away from you. I'll write the rest later but right now its hrd to type bc I'm on pain killers and am trying to clean the house!!! Totally wasn't prepared! I love you girls!!! BTW only lost about 7 lbs in the hospital!!! GRRR
Congratulations!!! I am so excited for you. I hope he gets to come home soon. Good luck. Yay for a good birth weight! Good Luck with Everything. Congrats

Oh my! That was totally out of the blue! But what a great size he is for only 35 weeks, he's bigger than any of mine were full term! That would be so wonderful if he came home this weekend. Can't wait to see pictures!
Oh my gosh! Awesome! I'm so glad he's doing pretty well. I know how much of a pain the pumping can be. I just read something today that said to pump for at least 10 minutes every 2 hours, as opposed to longer periods less frequently. Maybe that will help? You could try the herbal supplement Fenugreek or the prescription Reglan. Also, drink lots of water and eat oatmeal. Hope you can get your supply up and he'll be able to nurse soon! COngrats!
