Baby Ashlyn Is Here!!

My little sister Malory had her baby girl at 12:46 p.m. this afternoon via c-section because Ashlyn was breech. They tried to turn her last Tuesday but it didn't work. They actually tore a little bit of the placenta trying but it wasn't harmful to the baby because it was just a little bit and the placenta can actually repair itself. Anyway she came 2 weeks early and weighed in at a whopping 6 pounds even and was 20 inches long.

She is so tiny and cute!! She has just a little bit of hair. She had some breathing issues at first and required oxygen but after about 40 minutes she was breathing all on her own and finally got to go and see her mommy. My girls loved looking at her! Sydney didn't want to put her down. Here are some pics! Enjoy. (If any of our family want specific hospital information to call or send something, just email me privately.)

Welcome Ashlyn Paige!

Tell your sis congrats! But I'm sooo sorry about the c-section. They are so awful! I'm really not looking forward to going through that again but I guess it's worth it when you see that sweet little baby. cute pictures, I really like her bow.

Hey you should find out if they used Lantus!! I have 2 boxes that have not been used (Thepen refills or they may already be pens I forgot) But I can just mail it to her in a cold pack or when my husband travels to Idaho (Rexburg) Maybe he could meet up with you or her to give it to her!! I have a ton of supplies that will just go to waste and I got it all for free!! Please let her know if you ever talk to her again!!!
