Hello!

So hello everyone!
Let me start out by introducing myself and of course the baby.
My name is Stacey, I'm married and we have one child. We have a baby boy, his name is Preston. He is our first baby and I guess I'm a little biased but hey isn't everyone at this point... well he is absolutely beautiful and perfect! Preston was born in January of this year, and well as you can guess from my link I'm 36 years old. It took so so so long to be able to have a baby, but after surgery and prayers we have been so blessed beyond measure to say the least. Long story short I had a miscarriage, that led to wanting to know why, so I had a septated uterus that led to surgery... Who knew? Anyways that led to finally being able to have a baby.. And let me say, for a first time pregnancy it was great. I never had morning sickness, cravings, mood swings, until I was 33 weeks pregnant. Then Christmas Eve, I was put in the hospital with pre term labor and Preeclampsia. So after close monitoring, medicine and strict bedrest, we were okay to go home. I had to go too the  doctor almost every 2 days. Then 37 weeks along I was put back in the hospital to be monitored for high blood pressure, the next day I was released. Only to go too my doctor's appointment and be put back in the hospital. At this point I felt like a yoyo and I was just so tired. But little did I know as soon as I got in a room I went into full active labor. He was early and transverse-
sideways. So by the time I was prepped for surgery my husband and family were able to get to the hospital quickly. We were finally having Preston!! Oh it was so wonderful to finally say that! After that, we had to stay in a week, he had fluid in his lungs, it was so scary and nerve wracking to not be able to hold your baby until 3 days after he was born. I cried so much. But when I finally did, oh the joy I felt in my heart! Unlike anything I've ever felt!
I guess this is enough starter story for now. Keep tuned in!
