Baylee is 2 weeks old!

It's crazy to think just 2 weeks ago, almost to the hour our little one was born. I had been in labor for 20 hours at this point and Baylee was still snug up high and she was not tolerating the trip out as her heart rate had kept dropping. After pushing for nearly an hour, my doctor decided if we wanted our baby to have the best chances of being safe and healthy we had no choice but to be rushed (and I mean RUSHED) for an emergency c-section. Within minutes then she was out, Daddy didn't even have time to make it into the OR until after she was born, that's how quick it went! After 2 more hours spent in the recovery room I finally got moved into my post-partum room. I was so anxious to see my precious new daughter, but I had to wait close to another 3 hours after that as she had a high fever immediately and they had to do lots of tests, start and IV and give her antibiotics and monitor her for awhile. Oh what seemed like forever. She ended up being just fine, and we got to go home about 48 hours later. We've been busy the last couple weeks, but so in love with our little munchkin!
