Paisley Rae

To get the whole story, we have to tell you a little bit of pregnancy history.

This pregnancy has gone fairly easy until the last little bit. Des has been battling high blood pressure for the last part of the pregnancy and with that comes Non-stress tests every few days. This past week, we went in for a regular check up with the doctor when he looked at Desi's blood test results and found that her blood platelets were getting too low. Because of this, the doc then looked at us and said, "you'll be having this baby tonight or tomorrow." Des, freaked while I was totally happy that the baby was coming.

We went home, packed, let Des freak out a little more, and then headed off too Cheesecake Factory with her friend Megan for Desi's last meal before going to the hospital. They induced her at 10 pm Wednesday night with a cervidil. By 11 am Thursday morning it was time for the Pitocin. About 3 hours later the nurse came in to help with the hourly roll over of Des and during this, she started to get a little nauseous and threw up. Minute later Paisley's heart rate went from 150 to 40 and eight nurses rushed in. The nurses gave Paisley some drugs to try and raise her heart rate and those didn't work. Within minutes Des was rushed into the OR for an emergency C-section. Poor Des was so drugged up that she slept through the whole c-section. She was snoring so much that the Doctors were wondering what the anesthesiologist gave her.

Paisley Rae was born at 2:12 pm weighing in at 6 lbs 9 oz. She was a long 19 inches and is as cute as can be.

The C-section went great and mom and baby came out of the OR perfectly. Paisley got an APGAR of 6, 8, and 9. Her blood glucose was low and we almost had to make a trip to the NICU until she finally scored above 50! They drew so much blood so many times from her, her poor little feet are just torn up.

Sunday afternoon finally came around and mom and baby were discharged healthy and happy!
