Day 1

Tuesday, March 6, 2012

Blair Olivia Bushman was 6lbs 2oz when she was born at 12:10pm Sunday afternoon. She was the most precious thing either of us had ever seen and she got to spend the first few moments of her life in Natalie's arms.


But at 5 weeks premature, she had to be taken the the NICU for observation and testing. They could not pinpoint a cause for the prematurity, which was especially surprising given the healthy pregnancy thus far.  She had low oxygen/high CO2 levels at first and the doctors worked to stabilize this aspect overnight. Natalie and I slept very little as you can only imagine...
