And Finally...The Pictures!

Here are all the pictures from Madelyn's birth up to today! I am feeling 100% better. I had to go to the ER yesterday and get an epidural blood patch done to stop the headache, which is caused by a leakage of spinal fluid. The leaking fluid causes your brain to be pulled down and stretches out the nerves causing the headache. To do the blood patch, they have to give you an epidural (without the pain meds, just the needle) and then draw blood from your arm and insert it into the epidural in your back. This causes a clot which stops the fluid from leaking. I just have to take it easy for 48 hours, but I swear it was instant relief! My doctor told us it would be a good idea to go to the ER and he called a friend of his who is an anestesiologist and he came in and did the blood patch. So, here she is!
