We are all set to go Thurs for our scheduled C-Section for baby Nathaniel  We have to be at the hospital at 5:30 AM, with surgery scheduled for 7:30 am.
Prayers for a safe and healthy delivery, especially that he won't need to be on oxygen at all (2 out of 3 of mine have...) would be greatly appreciated!
I am feeling much more prepared this time. I was able to go to confession last Thurs and was anointed with oil and prayer by Fr. after Mass on Sun. I feel like I am in a holy bubble  And when I was stressing out about the whole ordeal on Fri, DH insisted that I go to our chiropractor's office tomorrow (the day before C/S) and get a massage so I am all relaxed and ready to go.
I will post updates as soon as I have computer access!
________________________________________________________
Update:
Nathaniel Mark was born Thurs (yesterday) at 8:19 am weighing 10 lb 2 oz and 23 in long!
C-section was routine, he came out pink and screaming {best sound ever as last baby was blue and slow to start}
Yesterday was good: he slept a lot and I was in good spirits but last night was rough... the duramorph wore off- lots of pain and he was fussy and hungry all night......
Today is going much better, was able to walk in the hall, and off the IV and catheter, and he is eating a sleeping good. The doctor thinks I should be able to go home tomorrow afternoon

Oh Vanessa, you are SO READY to go! Talk about being prepared. And your excitement is contagious! Baby Nathaniel is so blessed to have a mother like you. You are both in my prayers.
"Christ be with you, Christ within you.
Christ behind you, Christ before you.
Christ beside you, Christ to win you.
Christ to comfort and restore you."

Congratulations!  
I've had 7 c-sections myself, so I'll pray with much empathy for an easy and quick recovery for you. Enjoy that sweet babe!
