Wow Ghost, I'm so happy everything went well--sounds pretty scary for awhile there.
Twinnie, you're not really being a bad mommy--mine are just as neglected as yours.

I used to be all into Knuffels! They even stopped with the thread a while back, I noticed.
Ghostie, I'm going to check out your myspace tomorrow, but we're about to go get ready for bed, and the girls are fussy!
I'll comment more on your c-section experience then too!

I had a look at his photos! He's got red hair! He reminds me of a son of a friend of mine, only without the red hair. Christopher was a name I was thinking of for a boy too.
It's amazing how fast they can have the baby out during a c-section huh? I thought they were still prepping me, and suddenly she says "Here comes the baby!" Amber was emergency c-section also because her heart rate was dropping and they didn't think she'd handle labor well. I also have some loss of sensation above the incision, but not total numbness like I had after the spinal block, when I kept feeling my thigh in the recovery room because it didn't feel like my own! My friend Leslie is still completely numb around her incision too, and her c-section was almost 12 years ago! My numbness was getting better since Amber's c-section before I had this one, so it's not the same for everybody!

apricotbaby Really, Twinnie? You used to be the Knuffel Queen!!! LOL I know!!! But as I started getting lazy about Gaia and more involved with Facebook, I began really neglecting my Knuffles. Maybe I should go visit them....

Yea it does go fast in a c section fawn. They announced 524 as the time of the cut then I felt the dr lay on my ribs and slide down my body to push the baby out and announced his birth at 526. 2 minutes....wow. I was just upset that I couldnt see him right away. They didnt hold him up or anything. They rushed him over to the corner to suck out his airway since he had a bowel movement in the womb. They didnt want him to have it in his airway....but they brought him over to me just before taking him to clean him up and weigh him.

My mom didn't get to see me for a couple days because she had an infection and I was jaundiced. Her family doctor had to come in and force the nurses to let her see me because she started going crazy with postpartum.

*turns green with the baby-having-talk* LOL Sometimes I'm glad I will never have my own child unless I'm the candidate for the next immaculate conception or I find an amazing woman. Thankfully there is an equal chance at both!! haha

I don't think they did the sliding down my body thing to push the baby out. They must have just reached in and taken out her head like I've seen in some c-section videos. I didn't get to see Lacey either until right before they took her to the nursery, but I expected that with a c-section. I also thought they'd show her to me briefly and then whisk her away, but the pediatrician actually laid her next to my head for a good 4 minutes, which is longer than I expected! Now with Amber, I came out of general anesthesia around maybe 4pm, and I saw half of her face briefly after 8pm before they flew her to Albuquerque, and she was way up high in the transporting incubator, and then I didn't get a good look at her until her third day when I was discharged and got to go to the NICU to see her.
Sometimes I envy those who don't ever plan to have kids, especially after days like yesterday when my anger level reaches volcanic. That's when I contemplate me just getting a job and Jason staying home with the kids, as I can't imagine a job where I'd be so angry so often and nearly exploding, and if I did, I'd just get another job!

Awww, fawNie. I know I couldn't take care of three little ones. My patience level is sometimes absolutely non-existant, so I definitely sympathize with you. *huggles*

*wakes up a dead thread*
Lacey's 2 months and chubbier than ever! Jason's mom found a picture of him as a baby this weekend and he looks so much like her right now, and both of their right ears stick out and their left doesn't, but his ears are both fine now, so we'll see!

WickedPlum fawN, would he mind if you posted comparison pics? Oh, not at all! Except the picture of him is in an old album his mom has, and we have no way of scanning it. We haven't had a working scanner in almost a decade! Maybe next time we go to Albuquerque, I can take our digital camera and try to snap a good picture of it and see how that turns out. Hopefully I remember!
