Baby Tye
Cheesy smile! Ha ha! I was just so excited to finally hold him :)
Baby Tye is finally here! My friend Yvonne had her baby boy Monday and of course I rushed to Tomball as soon as I could to go and see them. He is so adorable. When I was holding him I was in amazement at how tiny he felt and I couldn't even remember Korbyn ever being that tiny! He was 7 lbs. 6 oz. and 20" born at 12:44 pm. So they were very close in weight and length. I have to give Yvonne props because she made it to a 6 (I think) before getting her epidural...ouch. I called her right before I left to make sure that I could bring Korbyn into the room. They said usually they don't allow anyone under 16 but because she was so small it was ok as long as she wasn't sick with anything. She was at daycare that day so I made sure to clean her off and change her clothes before we went, just in case. We got there around 5:30 and Korbyn was supposed to eat at 4:30 so I knew she was going to be hungry so I made her a 4 oz. bottle right away (which is what she usually drinks). Well she sucked that down and she was really fussy right after and wouldn't stop crying so I stepped out of the room because I didn't want to disturb anyone else and she burped and was a little better but kept crying. A couple of the nurses came over and were doting on her and they kind of lowered their voices and asked "do you need formula for her?" I was so embarrassed! I feed my baby...can't you tell! So I politely thanked them and said no and immediately went back in the room and decided to give her another ounce. She sucked that down, so I continued to make an ounce at a time and gave it to her and when she was finally satisfied she had drank 8 ounces!!!! She has never had that much at one time and she never even spit up, she was just super hungry. We left the hospital around 7:30 and I drove a couple of minutes and she started fussing again! I knew she wasn't hungry or tired and then I realized that I forgot to change her diaper before we left the hospital!!! She hadn't been changed since around 3:30! So I had to pull over in an HEB parking lot and change her, just wet thankfully, and she was good to go. It's days like that that make me feel like an awful parent! People probably think I starve my baby and let her go with wet diapers on all the time. I don't, I really really don't! It was just a hectic day!!!
