On August 2, 2011 my boyfriend and I headed to the hospital for my scheduled c-section after a sleepless night. We arrived around 10:30am and did our registration. Around 1:20pm I was all sent to the OR to be prepped for surgery. I got my spinal (which took about 5 pokes to find the correct spot) and was all set to go. Surgery began and then I heard it....my sons first cries. At 1:50pm a 9lb 10oz, 20in baby boy entered this world and brought both Javier (my SO) and I to tears. He was perfect with his fat cheeks, dimples, and curly hair! His name is Giovanni Jose Amaya and he is my world. He wore newborn clothes for about 2 days lol and practically fits into size 3 months. He is almost into size 1 diapers. He has 2 dimples and they are the cutest things ever! His eye color is still unknown. They are still that dark grey color but I hope he gets my eyes. He is strictly breastfed and is doing great with latching, feeding etc. Giovanni is 11 days old today and has grown soo much already. I love him with all of my heart. Here are some pictures below.
I forgot to add that he was born at 39Weeks 1Day gestational age. He was expected to be over 10lbs if I went full term which was part of the reason why I had the c-section along with me having a small pelvis. He also never dropped and all of my docs didn't expect him to drop anytime soon so inducing me really wouldn't have done anything.
