AndyJoy Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Details to follow--it has been a crazy week, including: 1. Incredibly short labor (approximately 4 hrs!) 2. Six days in the hospital because Keaton had an infection and had to have IV antibiotics (now home and doing wonderfully) 3. My mom passed out today and was taken to the hospital by ambulance (probably just due to exhaustion and low blood sugar, but there are some concerns to still rule out and she is spending the night) 4. My dad arrives tonight from Idaho. (I bought him a same-day ticket so he could be here) We would love your prayers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyJoy Posted October 7, 2009 Author Share Posted October 7, 2009 Embassy Academy's first student has arrived! And what a cute one! :) Four hours of labor for #1?! I'm on that with #6... Yeah, I received lots of advice to get the the hospital IMMEDIATELY next time I go into labor, unless Daddy wants to learn how to deliver!

AndyJoy Posted October 7, 2009 Author Share Posted October 7, 2009 Oh he is beautiful! Congrats. Now let the homeschooling begin! (you can wait a few days if you need to ;) ) While the nurses were cleaning him and determining his Apgar score, Daddy was telling him about dinosaurs and how wonderful it is to eat cheese, so he's got a start on his education already. I think the days we spent in the hospital count as his first unit study, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbie Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 How precious, you are truly blessed. Prayers to you and your family for continued health. Fast deliveries are nice, but they are right about the next one being faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonnie in VA Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Your son is beautiful. Yes, get there quickly next time. My first labor was 4 hours long. Second labor? I delivered my daughter in the front seat of our car. (Third and fourth: inductions at the midwifery center) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
