Baby Liam is here!

[naturalmama1012]

Well here I am alive and home with my little guy! Liam Patrick was born June 14th, 2005 at 10:33pm weighing 8 lbs 8 oz, 20.5 inches long after a very fast 2.5 hours of labor.

I am doing great, so far as I can tell, although an echo at 2 days post-partum showed my EF had dropped to 30%. Since I have had alot of runs of PVCs I am home with an event monitor for 30 days and will be closely followed by cardio... I am completely symptom free though and if it weren't for the echo I'd have no clue I lost any function. My hope and prayer is that a follow up echo will show it's bounced back... until then, 1 day at a time!

Liam is 100% perfect and healthy and his big brother is very proud!

Great Big Congrats for the Great Big Baby Boy.
I love the name Liam, as well. Had I had my way, "Jack" would have been a Liam. He is John Patrick instead. We almost had babies with the same name!!

Sending well wishes for speedy recovery.

A congrats from me too although I haven't checked in here very much. I see your EF has dropped to 30%...do you mind telling me what it was before this pg ?

[naturalmama1012]

Susan, it was 45-50% by echo and 59% by MUGA.

Hi Becki -

Congratulations! You did it!!!!

May I ask what your current EF is like?

Wow - I am so amazed and proud of you ... this is what we'd like to do (baby # 2) but we keep being told no no no. So I am doing my own research.
