I'm officially a mom!

Baby boy Lennon Kenneth was born 4/24/15 at 5:14am weighing 8.5 lbs 18 1/2 in, after 27 1/2 hours of labor and then a c-section. C-section was done due to failure to progress and not fully dilating. After the c-section, in recovery, i was bonding with Lennon and my DS. Started feeling weird... My blood pressure bottomed out and they had my DS take the baby and work on me, I had a pretty severe hemorrhage losing 1800 units of blood. ( I think the term units is correct) they got the  bleeding under control and continued to monitor my hemoglobin while in the hospital. We came home yesterday. I am so grateful to have my healthy baby boy! I did not know i could ever love anyone this much.

Congrats, momma! I\'m so glad everything turned out well -- even if you had a scary part to your story. Love on that little guy for all of us!

Congrats!! Glad you and baby are doing well. Especially after that scare you had! Did they have to give you a transfusion because of it? (Sorry if it\'s inappropriate to ask. I\'m actually sitting here I\'m the hospital on bed rest due to a blood clot & have a fear that I will need one. Just wanted to hear first hand how it was if you did get one?)
Enjoy every well deserved moment with your little guy. Hugs :)
