Baby Boy is Here!

Hi friends and followers of Tanielle! Xazmin here...hijacking T's blog to give you a quick update. I'll make it brief so Tanielle can share all the details herself, but just wanted you to know:

Tanielle went in yesterday morning for a scheduled induction. Learned that Baby Boy was breech and would have to be delivered via c-section. He took fluid into his lungs during delivery and was immediately whisked away to the nursery for oxygen and IV treatment. It's hard on Tanielle not being able to snuggle her baby.

Baby Boy has not yet been given a name, because they've hardly had a chance to spend any time with him, and decide what name is right for him. He weighed 7lbs 3 oz and was 19 inches long.

I spoke to Tanielle briefly this afternoon, and she is emotional, but hanging in there. Baby Boy is doing better today, and is no longer on oxygen. Still struggling to nurse though, and is on IV still for nourishment.

I just wanted to let all you in the blog world who care about Tanielle know what's going on so you can keep her and her baby in your thoughts and prayers.
