Hello,
I am just now recovered enough to send out an e-mail to you all. We are the proud parents of the cutest little baby boy ever!!!!! Calvin Moses Diffey was born Sunday June 8th at 1:46am after just 7 hours of labor. Much better than the 18 with Hannah. And yes...He is definitely one the of the best Anniversary presents one could ever ask for!! Sunday Dan and I also "celebrated" our 6th Wedding Anniversary.
Calvin was 8.3 lbs (same as Hannah) and 21in in length. He has lots of dark brown hair and chubby cheeks! They are SO cute. Please pray for him, he was admitted into the NICU here yesterday morning. During the last hour of my labor, I had a temperature, and when he came out his was 103. They think he may have contracted some mild infection from the this and the birth(which means they have no clue). He has passed all his vital tests, and is in perfect health otherwise. But he is very lethargic and wont eat. So they have upstairs and are watching him closely. As of 8pm last night he was the same. He did take a bottle for them yesterday morning at 5am. But I have not been able to feed him myself yet. This is really stressing me out too. I have pumped several times now, and am Not producing any milk. The staff says that this normal and my milk should come in soon...
We should get more results back today. It is hard to remember that he is 15 days early (b/c he is very huge) and that is part of the problem. (esp with the eating). You should see him up there in NICU compared to the other babies!! They are all little 3.2 pounders and he is way over 8. The one mom called him Fat!! I felt really sorry for her b/c her baby was 2 lbs and in a box. She couldn't even touch her baby.
As soon as we get home tomorrow, I will down load the picture and put them on here so you can see what he looks like.
Thanks again for all your prayers,
