Audra Jane was born today at 3:22 pm! She weighs 8 lbs 5 oz - the same birth weight as her big sister and is 20.75 inches long. Her HLHS is confirmed but she has no other issues at this time. She is breathing well on her own and has a strong heartbeat. She is beautiful and looks like her older sister a bit. She does indeed have a lot if hair, which explains all the heartburn!
Hopefully tomorrow we will find out when they will plan her surgery. They will keep a close eye on her to make sure all of levels are okay, which may change the plan as well.
Thank you to everyone for your thoughts, prayers and support. Many of you have expressed that you want to visit but unfortunately we have to limit her visitors to immediate family only - just us, big sis, our parents and sisters. She needs to be exposed to as little germs as possible! Thank you for understanding!
What a great day!
