In the beginning

Well lets see.....On March 16, 2009 I went to my normal weekly doctors appointment and they did a non stress test which Taylor was NOT active enough. They did some special ultra sound which she did not pass but 4 out of the 10 tests. Also my urine collect test come back with protein in my urine. So needless to say Dr Fox sent me to the hospital and they started inducing me at lunch time. I was so worried cause Michael was in Columbia and was almost three hours away. I was worried he wouldn't make it in time. When they induced me with Madison i had her in four hours. This time was much much different! They got the paperwork done got me started on the drip which was so slow but that's the way it is. Mom, Cindy, Shelli, Crystal and Athena were the ones there at first. Michael made it then he went home and got a shower and came back. It was a slow process so by the evening it was just Crystal, Mom, Michael, Daddy, Josh, Chris, Cindy, Audrey and Cecil. Time went on and we finally had her about 2:08 am. She weighed 8lbs 4ozs and was 21 inches long. She had a head full of brown hair. She cried at first but once under the lights she layed there so content. We came home in two days and i was so ready to be out of that bed! I attempted the breast feeding in the hospital and it was so hard but i did it and then when we came home she just didn't want to latch on at all so i started her on formula. Shes been on formula since.
