My sister had her baby last night at 6:30, via emergency c-section. She was only dilated to 4 cm and they were giving her more pitocin, trying to get her labor to "ramp up" b/c she had been at 4 cm with contractions about 3 min apart for a few hours, when suddenly the baby's heart rate dropped, and the doctor said they had to get him out immediately. He is super cute. He looks exactly like his older brother. He weighs 8 pounds 9 oz and was 21.5 inches long. He seems really skinny, even though he weighs only about 1/2 a pound less than G did when he was born, and G had 3 chins and super chubby cheeks. lol.
We are going to see them again tonight after I get off work. My parents are there now, and said that my sister said he's eating like a champ! Which is good, b/c breast feeding her twins didn't work out how she had hoped.
Also, oddly, her nurse was a girl I graduated college with, who was also an EL ED major. She said she couldn't find a job, so she was a vet tech for a while, then decided to become a nurse. So it was cool to see her, and get the chance to catch up!
