A. W. Gee is here! Born December 21 at 5:16pm. 8lbs 11oz 22 inches long. A. gave us a run for our money the last few weeks of pregnancy. He was doing somersaults every other day inside. He was breech so they brought me in for an inversion (where they attempt to manually turn him from the outside) ,but after they had the IV in we discovered that he had flipped. They sent me home. The day before I was scheduled to be induced he was breech again. I went in the day I was supposed to be induced and he was laying sideways. After a successful inversion and 5 hours of labor A. entered the world. He came out with the cord wrapped twice around the neck and then harnessed around his body! The Doctor on call said he had never seen a cord wrapped that way before.
We are all VERY glad that he made it safely into the world. We came home from the hospital late on the 23, just in time for Christmas. He is a wonderful baby and is being very loved at home!
