BIG DAYS

12/24/2010-We're pregnant!
3/23/2011-Tuckers a boy. We also find out he has Myelomeningocele. Which is a defect where the spinal cord doesn't fully develop. Essentially the spinal cord has an opening. This also causes hydrocephalus; spinal fluid builds up in the ventricals (in the head) and needs a shunt put into to circulate back into the body.
3/28/11-Met with neurologist to talk about severity of Tucker's defect. It was hell waiting 5 days. After having a good talk, Liane and I went and did some baby shoppiing. It was a great day of relief.
7/27/11-C-section date 730am. Surgery to close his spine to come within 48hrs.
7/28/11-Surgery to close spine.

Mommys been working!

Every 2 hours 24 hrs a day, Liane is pumping. Pretty amazing. I'm half asleep delivering mild as well. Then Tucker wakes me up with his cute little face.

    That's great! When Madi would go NPO, I'd start pumping. Soon I'd fill up their freezer and all the nurses would come by to see who made all that milk! :)
