Birth Story:)
My baby arrived on his due date, July 31st. We almost didn't make it to the hospital. I was in labor quite a while with my first 2 children, and it's been 10 yrs, so I thought this one would be like having my first. Boy was I wrong.... my water broke at 10:45 pm..... I wasn't positive that is what is was because it wasn't like a big gush or anything, so I decided to wait to see if I would start to have any pains.... about 11:20 I had a little cramp, nothing big, and decided to go on to the hospital because it is 40 minutes away. We arrived at the hospital at 12:30 and baby Andrew was born at 1:18. It was QUICK! I have to say I am already so in love with this little fellow. I cannot even begin to describe how it feels.. I have 2 other children ages 13 and 10, I guess I forgot how WONDERFUL it feels to be a new mom.
I swear to God - literally - I was JUST thinking about you this morning and wondering where you've been. I have just been peaking in the last few weeks w/occasional responses due to working OT because of the recent activities here in Jakarta, but it's calming down now.
I did talk to a dr in the U.S. - he was VERY nice...and he didn't tell me it was just because of my AMA...nor the blood clotting. He said it sounds very much to him as if it was hormonal...and when I told him what I was taking, he said it was the same thing he'd recommend...EXCEPT that the progesterone I was taking wasn't even in the ball park of being enough. He recommend a different one, which came in the mail last week. DH is going to go to Egypt in about two weeks, and as soon as he gets back, we'll start TTC again.
How have you and Nathan been? Everything's OK?
Thanks for checking on me....and I hope you are well!
