After 9 long months of pregnancy, on March 10th, Samuel Porter Allen joined our family at 10 am. Sam weighed 7.9 lbs and measured 20 inches long. He was born with a full head of dark hair. A week before Sam was born I had a dream, in this dream I gave birth to a child with a full head of dark hair-see dreams do come true!
My recovery process has not been the greatest. After my c-section, the doctors noticed that my incision didn't quite look right, it had been pooling fluid. The doctor removed my staples and about 70% of the incision reopened. A wound vac was attached to my open wound which I will have to wear while my wound heals from the inside out. The home health care nurse thinks it will heal quickly and I should only have the wound vac for a few weeks.
Cooper was a little hesitant at first but has really opened up to his little brother. Cooper wants "hug and kiss baby" and "hold baby". He will sit and giggle at Sam's little grunts and noises, it's so cute!
I'm sure being a mom of two will limit my personal time and I don't mind:) but my goal is to update the blog every few days because I want to document and share the things my little guys do, and unfortunately, time will go too fast.
