Caroline Jane Lawrence arrived in the wee hours of the morning on October 15th 2011. She was born via c-section at 0001 in the morning. Dr. Dryden decided on Friday afternoon to go ahead with the c-section a week early after a non-stress test showed non-reassuring fetal heart tones. An ultrasound was done which showed that Caroline had her cord in her hand and was occasionally squeezing it (silly girl- that is something I could see Audrey doing). When Caroline got here her daddy was the first to announce to the room that “it’s a girl!! Caroline’s Apagar scores were 9/9 and she weighed 6 pounds 1 ounce and is PERFECT!!
We were in the recovery room for several hours following a bad reaction to some pain meds I was given so we didn’t get to a room until about 5 am on Saturday morning. We had lots of friends and family members that were anxious to meet miss Caroline and came to visit us while we were in the hospital.
Caroline looks so much like her big sister did when she was born. Below are pictures of them side by side, see if you can tell who is who
