Here comes Brandon!

I started having real labor contractions on 7/11/09 and by 4:00am the next morning we were headed to the hospital! We were ready to go! We had the peds specialist there and now it was all up to me. Man oh man was he not wanting to come out. I pushed and pushed and pushed until I screamed that I couldnt push anymore. Finally at 12:21 that afternoon with the help of the a vacumn out popped Brandon. They held him up for me to see then rushed him over to the baby cart. I was exhusted but as soon as I heard him cry I was releaved. They finally handed him over to me and he was beautiful, a full head of hair and all of his fingers and toes. The next couple of days at the hospital were stressful. They did an MRI and X-Ray to make sure that he was ok due to the vacumn and the fact that my little boy had an abnormally large soft spot that covered the back of his head all the way up to the forehead. For me this was the answer to the frontal bossing. Most babies are born with only the front fontanal still open however Brandon's fontanal reached well below his forhead. His forehead of awesomness! They told us to follow up with with his pediatricion and a neurosurgeon but after looking in his eyes I new everything would be alright.
