Well, my little man just couldn’t wait to meet us. He was supposed to come on April 16. Instead, little man came on March 19 at 5:03pm. He was born at 36 weeks gestation exactly, and he is doing absolutely amazing. My labor was painless...I dilated to a 9 and had no idea. I’m apparently high risk for early delivery from now on, and I’m glad my husband made me go in to get checked out because I just didn’t “feel right.” They pumped me full of fluids and I had to have antibiotics because we hadn’t done the strep test. I had to get two rounds of steroid injections and I was stuck in bed for 4 days before I delivered. We wanted to give the shots a chance to work, and we wanted him to make it to 36 weeks so he’d have a better chance. When he was born, a team was ready, just in case his lungs weren’t working. Well, he was absolutely perfect, and we had zero nicu time. Love him so much. ❤️

My 5 pound baby boy!
