Today we welcomed Paige Evelyn Parrott into this world, not with out some excitement, but she is now here.
At 2pm on Monday we went to our Midwife's for a regularly scheduled appointment, since we were a few days past due she wanted to perform a stress test on the baby. We got the test going and right away our midwife did not like the way things were going, so we stayed for a little while longer to monitor both Nicki and the baby. Around 3pm we were asked to go straight to the hospital for a bio physical profile. At this point we were both freaking out a bit, mostly because we really had no idea what was going on or what to expect.
We went into the bio physical profile at around 3:15pm, turns out it was just a really long ultrasound, in this bio physical profile the baby is graded on a 8 point scale, needing 7 points to pass. Our baby only scored 2 of 8 points, which meant we needed to get her born ASAP. At this point our only option was an emergency C-Section.
We went directly from the radiology to the ER, and then straight in to Pre-Op, all in the span of about 1 hour. So at about 5:00 pm, they prepped Nicki for the C-Section, and we had baby Paige an hour later. As you can tell it was a rather incredibly chaotic, and scary day for us all.
Here are the first pics of Baby Paige.
