Had babe
Had Hunter Oct 4th, 2011. He was 6lb 3oz 18 1/2in.
I went in for an NST on the 3rd and Hunter fail his kick tests. So they admitted me for observation. And they decided to do my c-section the next morning. He was born at 7:57 am.
I needed two iron transfusions and a blood transfusion. I remained in the hospital until the 9th. Hunter was fine and ready to go on the second day. I now need weekly labs for my iron. I knew my iron was low but not deadly low. My hct/hemoglobin was extremely low as well. I may need another transfusion. I will know in a few days.
I have been in bed since I have gotten home. I am happy that I actually can breastfeed. I was unable with my first. I am super tired and healing well. My 3 year old, Ryder, is very lovable to the baby. He kisses and had held him gently. It's very sweet.

Hope all are doing well.

Congratulations on a healthy baby boy! Sorry to hear you've had such a rough time! Hopefully they can get your iron where it needs to be! Glad you're able to breastfeed and your older one adores the baby! Feel better soon!
