Caroline's Big Day



We don't really have any good 1st day of life pictures but have them from a friend so hope to get those downloaded in the future.



Caroline Brixey Fields


Born: 5:14pm 11/9/09


Length: 18 inches


Weight: 5 lbs. 13 oz.


Head: 13 inches


Caroline was not waiting to come into the world. I was dialated to a 4 when I came to the hospital and they tried to stop my labor but Caroline was not having any of it. I quickly progressed to a 6 and was admitted. I received my epidural at about an 8- praise God for epidurals! And Caroline was born not long after with about 50 minutes of pushing. She was born at only 35 weeks so was a little early.


She started out doing great but that night developed respiratory difficulty and had to be kept in the NICU. I have to admit, at 1am I didn't really understand what they were telling me.
