Introducing… Megan Rose Stout!




You should all be proud of me for posting my first blog, but this is definately something to blog about! Well, she's finally here. The doctor scheduled my C-Section 1 week after my due date to give me a chance to go into labor. I felt a few sporadic contractions, but other than that nothing happened, so C-Section it was. I was a little nervous about it, but having done it before I knew what to expect this time around. I went to bed very early the night before, thanks to an Ambien Alison gave me. We woke up at 4:00 am, arrived at the hospital at 5:30, was wheeled into the operation room at 7:30, and she was in my arms at 8:06!!! Sounds pretty easy, doesn't it? Actually it was. The hard part was standing up to take my first steps 24 hours later. I do have to say the pain has been minimal compared to Jordan's birth, probally due to the lack of a 24 hour labor and 2 hours of pusing. Things have gone relatively smoothly, thanks to both grandma's taking turns helping. Jordan has asjusted a lot better than we thought he would and he even gave her his first kisses this morning. Love you all!!!!!!
