The final Appointment!!!!!

Well here's the deal...I had been having contractions about every ten minutes or so all weekend and basically just felt bad. I went to my OB appt. on Monday and told him of the weekends events and he suggested that I go to L and D and get monitored. So I do. I went very reluctantly as I am hormonal and huge. It turns out that I was starting to dilate...to a 1cm. Then they decided to draw blood and run the PIH panel as well. Well things came back worse than they were last week. My liver enzymes doubled what they were just a week ago. My uric acid level went way up compared to what it has been and they decided that it was a good idea to deliver me STAT. DH was still on his way to the hospital from work...I am sweating waiting for him!!!! So anyhow it was a flurry of nurses and doctors all coming together to make this whole thing work out. I was signing papers, getting IV's and a catheter, shaved, etc. Anyhow, I get into the OR and had to sit for the spinal...Can I just say OUCH! It was a toughy!!! Anyhow after I got that done and ten minutes of bawling I was all strapped down for the long haul! It was a rough surgery...but within a few minutes really I heard the loud sounds of Riley bellowing throughout the suite! Then a minute later I heard Sophie crying out!!! It was so amazing! I started crying when I heard them and I knew that they could breathe well. Then they briefly showed me the babies and then DH went with them to the nursery and I stayed there and got stitched up. Fun fun. I went to recovery for about an hour and after lots of tears and pain medication it was finally at a tolerable level. Then they took me on the bed to the nursery to see the little nuggets. They are sooo cute. I will be posting photos when I get home and have equipment that works. I have a defective card reader with me....uuugghh!!! Anyhow, the babies are so adorable! Sophie weighed in at 5lbs 8 oz and Riley weighed in at 5 lbs 5 oz. I do not have the length yet. They both have hair!!! Sophie seems to be a little spitfire just like her mother and Riley is a calm baby just soaking things up! Both are way cute! But that is a biased mothers opinion. I will for sure get some photos up as soon as I get home. They will have to stay longer than me but that is OK it is for their good and I can heal up. It will kill me to leave them though. I plan on visiting for the better part of all the days they are here. Well that is my story and I am sticking with it!
