Update on Zavier - Apologizing in advance, long
ZandersMama wrote: Thank you all for the prayers and positive thoughts! Its been such a long week! I went into the hospital tuesday the 19th at around supper time bleeding and having contractions. After and ultrasound the doctors decided that my placenta was pulling away a bit. They gave me shots of steriods for the babies lungs and meds to stop the contractions, and everything seemed to calm down a bit. They put me on bed rest in the hospital to prevent any more damage with my placenta and to keep the baby in until at least 30 weeks. Everything stayed calm until sunday the 24th around 7, I was lying in bed in th ehospital and felt a little twinge, when I went to the bathroom I was pouring blood. So, doctors decided then to airlift me to the nearest big city, Halifax, because the hospital I was in isn't as advanced and they wanted me to be checked out better by the specialists there. As they were prepping me for the flight, getting IV's, cathater, ect. all in place my water broke. They decided then to do an emergency c-section. This was decided around 10:40 at night and Zavier Adam James was born at 11:02. He did really good right away, but had to be put on a respirator today as I was being discharged. Everything seems like it will be good, he is strong. I am having such a hard time dealing with it all, he isnt due till Christmastime. Also, the way the section was done is weird because it was rushed. I am not able to have anymore children Its been a really emotional few days. I live about 30 minutes from the hospital, It was bad leaving today. I am pumping, and he was getting a little bit until he was put on the machines today. He weighed 2lbs 3oz at birth. I'm bawling typing this so if it doesnt make much sense i'm tired and sore and blahhhhhhhh. If I think of anymore i'll get it added
