I spoke with a social worker, who transferred me to a psychologist whom I spoke to for about 20 minutes about Chase's behaviors. We were given paper work, and if you circled more than 20 "2"s on the behavior chart, you were seen as a critical, and bumped to the front. The front is a 6 week wait, which is much better than our original 6 month wait.
My friend, Tegan, brought her boys over on Thursday, and she too noticed his behavior is odd. He separated himself from her boys, locking himself in the closet. When Tab began to cry, Chase panicked. Chase was even nervous to meet Santa at the zoo. During the JDRF awards, he was spinning and shaking his head, saying nothing.
Now, some days are great. He is back to his old self and is wonderful company. The only friend I've really talked to is Tegan and Kylee. More so Tegan, because she has seen him most recently.
I've been so busy with photography that I havent posted Coreys birth story!
So, I had planned to do a natural birth, but my first son was almost an emergency c-section due to shoulder distocia, and this little boy started going into sleep cycles and his movement decreased suddenly. My dr decided to induce on the 20th (due the 28th). So we had to abandon my natural birth, but we were still going to try for no epidural.
Well, I went into labor at 3pm the day of my induction, and we left for the hospital when we were scheduled. On the way, FLAT TIRE!! hahaha. So we got to the hospital at 10pm, 1 hour late. I was a whopping 3cm, from 1 cm that previous thursday. They did the foley cath to get me to 4cm, since I was contracting but not dilating well.
Well, the on-call dr (mine came in at 3am), gave me the foley cath to dilate me to 4-5cm, and cervidil. Within an hour, my BP went to 68/50 and I went into shock. 2 dr's came in with about 4 nurses and gave me a ton of fluids through my IV. My BP only went to 80/63 so they told me it was time to do the epidural because it seemed like I would need the c-section. I had made it to nearly 6cm BEAUTIFULLY without any drugs, and with my husband dead asleep and NO support. But I kept passing out, and my son's HR was dropping with each contraction.
At 8am, when I got the epidural, I laid back and finally got about 45 min of sleep before my DR came in to break my water to see if he could get the baby to come on his own without the c-section. At 10am, I was 10cm. Exactly the same time I was 10cm with Chase.
My dr asked if I would like to push now, or wait until he was well into the birth canal. My MIL was running late, as she ALSO got a flat on the way, so we waited.
I waited at 10cm for over 2 hours, which was fine because I could feel him naturally coming down. at 12:05, I began to push. On the 2nd push everyone began to scream "STOP!!" My dr came in and said "Who's ready for a---OH S**T!" and grabbed gloves from the nurse. My son was just sliding on out on his own, with no help from me! They were all screaming to stop because his cord was wrapped around his neck and the faster he came down, the tighter it was getting. So the dr removed it and at 12:09, Corey Allen was born! Chase was born at 12:15 in 2008, so that made a cool moment.
He was taken right from me and placed right on my chest to be nursed. I didn't get this with Chase, as he was not breathing and rushed to nicu shortly after.
Corey has been such a wonderful baby. He lights up when he sees Randy, just loves him.
That's his newborn picture.
Here are new pictures of my boys. Love!
