First Month!

So much has happened. I'm a slacker but I have good reason! Taking care of a newborn is no joke!

I had to have an emergency c-section after starting the induction the previous night. Backing up a little... how did we get here? She was supposed to arrive the following week? I had an OBGYN follow up with an Ultrasound on Friday the 20th. Chris and I went and met up with my Mother-in-law, I figured everyone would like to see the last ultrasound before my induction the following weekend. Well... she didn't perform up to par on the Ultrasound and after consulting with the midwife on call... they decided I should repeat some tests over at the hospit
