I had my baby

Well girls i gave birth to Levi on the 10th of sept! i was induced on the 9th and had a long and difficult labour he head was always very high, had a controlled arm and also the synto drip it was very painful, ended up having an epi as i was becoming so tired and not progressing, he was born at 350 am and wasnt breathing! he was totally purple and not moving at all the called a code blue and rushed him over to the resusitation trolley, we were sovery scared i was screaming and crying i coulnt beleive it!
they got him doing ok but were worried about his breathing, cut a long story short he had RDS (Respiritory dispress sydrome and had to be transfered to  the children hospital in brisbane, this has been just crazy for us all we have to travel up there each day to see him he was on a respirator for 3 days but is now improving and i have started to feed him!
sorry i havent written earlier but im just flat out with all the travelling!
hope you are all well im sure it will all calm down soon and i can write propaly  maybe with no spelling mistakes lol
love to you all Emma xx

Congrats on the birth and I'm sorry it's been so dramatic. Maybe he's gearing up to be the perfect baby and just getting this all out of his system now.
