He's here♡♡♡♡

Well my little guy decided he wanted to see us a little earlier. On Sunday 8/23 my water broke 38 weeks 4 days gestation ....26 hrs of labor,9.5cm dilated,fully effaced and still ended up having a C-section. My Jackson was born 8/24 at 11:32am 6 lbs 11 ozs 20 inches. But he had a true knot in his cord and wasn't breathing...the longest 3 minutes and 12 seconds of my life...I had to be sedated for anxiety but before I went out I heard him cry. Jack was in the NICU on a cpap machine 24 hrs,oxygen cannula for 24 h rs & a 7 day course of antibiotics. It's been a tough,exhausting super emotional roller coaster but, at 2am Monday morning our baby boy comes home. I'm so in love♡♡♡♡♡ My OB,the nurse's & NICU     team at The Medical Center of Plano Texas did an outstanding job of saving my son,and caring for myself and my husband and we are forever grateful.
