Meet Miss Eliza Mae! She was born June 6th. Megan & Eli didn’t find out the gender and it was such a great surprise. I was one of the only ones who said girl all along, it’s nice to be right. Ha!
It’s a good thing she’s so beautiful because her arrival wasn’t so smooth. Megan went in to see her Doctor because she knew something was off. The baby wasn’t moving as much as she had been. Her instincts were right and baby was in distress. Eliza was born by emergency C-Section and not only was the cord wrapped around her neck but she was also having trouble breathing on her own. Within a few hours her lung collapsed. She was transferred down to the NICU at Children’s Hospital in Detroit. They discovered she had a small hole in her lung. Megan was recovering at home while Eli stayed with Eliza. I just loved what she wrote below;
He has spent every single moment with Eliza at the NICU in Detroit since day 1, so I could recover at home & rest from surgery. He slept on a janky pull out recliner for 4 nights & then would drive up to Port Huron and bring me down here every day during the day. Eliza hit the Daddy jackpot with this guy.
Happily they are now home and all is well! Eliza is doing perfectly. Big sister and brother are just in awe of her and love watching her every move. She is the perfect addition to the Brewer family.
