After a long 2 and a half hours, our little girl was finally born at 11:33 pm. She was born with so much hair and was a perfect 7 lb 10 oz. As soon as she was born, they laid her on my chest and then took her away to get her all cleaned up. As they took her away, I could see in my doctor's eyes that something was wrong. Nothing was wrong with the baby, but instead something was wrong with me. For some reason my blood would not clot, so I lost a lot of blood after the delivery. They had to give me two more shots in my leg to try to help the blood clot and then I had to have a blood transfusion to restore the amount of blood in my body. I really didn't understand what was happening. All I knew was I now had another IV in my arm and I wasn't able to hold my little one that I worked so hard for. I kept asking Joe and my mom if she was ok and all they said was she was perfect. It was so hard for me to not be able to hold her, but while I was getting the blood the nurse suggested that I don't hold her. I wasn't able to feed her, so she was given a bottle from her Daddy. She was absolutely perfect with this gorgeous dark hair. The nursery had even put a bow in her hair because she had so much hair. I couldn't believe she was finally here. Our Adelyn Nicole...so perfect!
