Well, my poor sister had quite an eventful labor and delivery. Sara went into the hospital on Tuesday night, labored all day Wednesday and Thursday without progressing enough for a vaginal birth so at 630pm last night they decided to do a c-section. Micah was born and was immediatly sent to the NICU (I know...I'm not sure our family belived it could happen two babies in a row). Micah had a lot of fluids in his lungs and belly that they had to suction out. They had him in the NICU till 12:30am when Sara finally got to see him. Since he was in the NICU they ran some tests and his white blood cell count is high, which means he might have an infection, they are still checking. Micah also has a clicking noise in his hip, like the joint is catching...so they are going to keep an eye on that as well.
So far mommy and baby are happy and healthy and Michael couldn't be ANY prouder. Micah was 7 lbs 8 oz, and 21 inches long. He has a full head of dark hair, Sara's nose and Mike's lips. I think he's so handsome. We'll get pictures posted just as soon as we get some taken and loaded.
Please pray for a speedy and full recovery for Micah and Sara. They are at Medical Center of Plano, but are currently not having any guests (even family at this point) so that they can get some sleep and work on feedings.
Thank you for your love and support for our family, immediate and extended.
Love,
Aunt Andrea!!
