Kloee was born at 1:41 AM on the 22nd of April, one day before her due date. She weighed in at 8# 4oz, 20 3/4 in. long, her head was 13 1/2 in., and her chest was 14 1/4 in. She is very healthy and passed all of her tests with no problems.It was quite the ordeal to get Kloee out. We started Tessa on the epidural about 9:00ish, which we BOTH were greatful for since Kloee didn't arrive for another 18 hours or so. They started her on the patosum right away since her contractions were not coming as fast as needed. At around 4:30 she was fully dialated and after 2 hours, they let her rest before continuing another 2 hours of pushing. The baby stopped making progress and unfortunately the next option was a C Section but the surgery wasn't going to be for a while. The anesthesiologist, who was already off for the day, had been needed for a surgery that was going to take about 2 to 3 hours. Because of the situation, that surgery couldn't wait. SO, at about 1:30 this morning, we went up for the surgery. When they were pulling the baby out, one doctor meantioned the size of the baby while another meantioned the size of the head. No wonder she didn't want to come out before. The surgery went well and Tessa is starting her process of recovery.
Here she is expressing her opinion of her first bath.
She is all clean and putting on her first shirt.
I missed the glare she had on her face by the click of the camera button. Her eyes were slightly open to let us know she was grumpy at us. Poor baby.

Wow what a beautiful little girl! We are all so happy to finally see some pictures of that cute little bundle. She sure looks like her mother! She also looks like a good sized baby.. making that c/s a good decision. Hope Tessa is doing well. Pass on our love. Remember... you have help with the baby, a moving bed and unlimited pain meds... stay as long as you need/can!!!

I am so happy to hear that everything went well and that Kloee is here safe and that Tessa is doing well. I know all about recovery from a c-section, so Darren help Tessa out with everything, she'll be pretty sore for awhile. Congrats to both of you.

Oh Tessa!! I'm so glad it is over and you have your sweet little angel here where she belongs! She is SO SWEET! It doesn't hurt that she looks just like her mamma...she's really beautiful! Congratulations to you both! Love, Heather
CONGRATS!! She is beautiful! I know what it's like to go thru such long, painful labor and end up with a c-section. Not fun at all! Keep up on your pain meds.. take them right on time.. it's the best way to stay on top of the pain!! Hope you recover fast and that you're doing well. I'm still recovering from my c-section too.. so we're in the same boat! Take care and I agree with the comment before.. stay in the hospital as long as you can.. you have much more help there and a hospital bed that moves up and down to help you get up!!
Congratulations!! So is totally adorable. What a cute name- LOVE it!
