Cameron was scheduled to arrive on September 15, 2011 via repeat c-section, and everything went according to plan! We arrived at the hospital yesterday morning at 7:00 a.m. and was taken back to surgery at 9:15 a.m. Cameron came out screaming and crying at 9:45! I was so relieved to hear her crying and screaming that I cried too!
Cameron weighed 8 pounds 14 ounces and that's having arrived at 37 weeks! She is 19.5 inches long and she has a head FULL of black hair!
The only blip that came up during the c-section is that I was hurting a lot while still being operated on and they ended up giving me something that knocked me out for the rest of the procedure. Fortunately, she was already out, and I had already gotten to see her before they did that. I was very drowsy for most of the day yesterday, but after it finally wore off, I felt pretty good.
She is such a good girl and we are so proud and so incredibly thankful for this sweet girl! She is eating great (I chose not to breastfeed with her...own personal decision), but everything is going well! I know Bailey is watching over her and is so proud of her little sister.
Here are a couple of pictures from yesterday and today! Happy viewing!
