It has been a crazy week! Wyatt Evan McKinney was born on April 3rd at 11:58 PM. We were scheduled to go in for some form of induction that day at 7:00 AM, but were told to stay home because there was no room for us and we could come back at 3:00....we were a little heart-broken but made the best of it and took a nap and washed the car.
When we finally got to our hospital room at 3:00, we found out that I was already in labor! No induction needed! It seemed like we waited around for a while and all the sudden my doctor checked me and said to the nurse, "Get the kit ready, she's complete!" After that my dad and Brian's dad were sent out of the room and 45 minutes later Wyatt was born.
We brought him home on Sunday afternoon and have been adjusting to life as parents. My mom has been here since then and went home today. She was such a big help and it was great to have her here. Just to have someone tell me that everything we were going through was "normal" was nice. Like with feeding....he has been a really sleepy baby and didn't want to wake up to eat for a long time. Therefore, he lost too much of his body weight. After MUCH persistence, things have figured themselves out and Wyatt is eating like a champ!
Anyway, he is currently the cutest baby ever and we love being with him everyday. We are even functioning fairly well on no sleep!
