Mason William
Mason came screaming into this world on Wednesday, January 30. He weighed 7 pounds, 7 ounces, and immediately stole what was left of my heart. Just like with Max, when I heard Mason scream for the first time as he was being pulled out of me, I bursted into tears. I cried out of sheer disbelief that he is alive and I am his mother, until he was brought over to my side - at which time we both stopped crying, locked eyes, and stared at each other.

Mason looks exactly like Max did when he was born (in comparing baby pictures, I literally don't know the difference between my own two sons). He is healthy and the perfect person that was meant to complete our family. We have been given a gift, and for that, we are so incredibly grateful.
My repeat C-section was the BEST decision I made... our birth was the most beautiful, calm, peaceful, quick experience. I laid down on the surgical table at 7:49 a.m., Mason was born at 8:07, and I was back in my postpartum room at 8:47. Mason was nursing at 8:56, and from there... well, everything has been incredibly calm and surreal.
We are still in the hospital - I will post a birth story once we are home and settled.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your love and support - you gals mean the world to me!
Welcome to this world, my baby Mason. You are the perfect little boy to complete our family.
XOXO
Mrs. D
Adorable!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am with you, if I ever had another, I would want a c-section. It is planned, mess worry, less drama, and you know what to expect. And you don't have to squirt yourself with a weird bottle and wear those medicated pads up your junk.
