Well I guess you have all figured out now that I had to have a C-section. I ended up not getting to come home until Saturday due to complications. I was having migraines in the hospital and vomiting. They finally decided it was caused by a low blood count. (My hematocrit was 22 which is about 15 points lower than normal.) Anyway, I have felt awful. We really need all of your prayers right now. I cannot go up and down steps which is hard since the boys bedroom is up there. I also cannot do any driving, lifting or house work for 2-3 weeks. Fortunately my Mom and Mother-in-law have been helping every day.They put me on vitamins and and extra iron and of course pain medicine. This has definitely been the hardest of my 3 deliverys.
On the positive side Nathaniel is doing great! He is nursing well and is healthy. He still sleeps a lot but is starting to get on somewhat of a schedule. I plan on posting some more pics later but right now I cannot go down the stairs to the other computer and Brent's laptop is harder to do downloads. He is a precious gift and I know once things settle down and I feel better we will be able to enjoy more together as a family.
For right now please pray that the boys will be cooperative when I cannot really do much for them and that my body will start to heal so I can be a Mom and wife again. Thanks for all of your support and prayers!
