Hello There,
We decided that we had too many important people in our lives that we want to be a part of our lil guy's life. It's kinda hard for that to happen when most of you are so far away. We hope that maybe with this you will feel like you are a part of the action. He is growing up so quickly and getting bigger everyday. We want to be able to share with all of you everything we are getting to enjoy here at home.
To start off, here is a little bit of his birth. He was due Oct 21, 2010. Monday Sept 13th I went in for a regular doctor's appointment and it turned out that my blood pressure was way to high. I was sent to Labor and Delivery. Tuesday morning, they induced me and by 5pm I had only dilated 5 cm. The doctor decided to do the C-Section and by 5:36pm Ricardo Lehi Alvarado was born. He weighed 4.1lbs and measured 17 7/8 in. He was taken to the NICU and had oxygen for 2 days. After that he was breathing all on his own and the IV was taken out as well. He was left only with a feeding tube. He pulled out his feeding tube 9/23/10 and the nurse didnt have the heart to put it back in. Seeing s how he had done that already 2 times that day and the night before. He came home Monday Sept 27th and I couldn't be happier.
He is such a good baby. He doesn't cry unless he is hungry. He wakes up about three times during the night and he is such a fighter. He has done excellent. Everyone at the hospital was impressed by his progress.
Well that is it for now. Kinda long, sorry:) If you read through all this, Thanks! I will be adding more as Ricardo continuous to grow and develop.
