Baby Aspen Kate

The baby counter is way off.  Baby Aspen decided to come five weeks early on August 9 instead of September 14.  At week 34 I started to leak amniotic fluid.  I was admitted into the hospital and given antibiotics. I stayed in the hospital for one week and then they induced me at 35 weeks.  Aspen was born at 5 lbs 15 oz.  She is perfectly normal,  but she is really tiny. She stayed in the NICU for three days just to be monitored.  I had to leave the hospital without her which was a strange feeling, but now David and I are enjoying her at home.
