Introducing Miles Oliver Lowery!



Miles is here! After a longer induction than we thought we'd have, I pushed for 9 minutes and he made his arrival at 5:39pm on October 13. He weighs 8 pounds and is 21 1/2 inches long. We had one scary moment 15 minutes after I got the epidural. My blood pressure crashed and Miles's heart rate plummeted. The head anesthesiologist was paged again and I was given a shot of ephedrine to bring my blood pressure back up. Everything turned out okay, and everyone is healthy. Gisèle met her baby brother after school today and I think they're going to get along very well. :)
