QUINCY KAI HEADY was born on April 3, 2009 @ 7:02 pm after 17 hours of labor. His head resembled a young conehead child. He weighed 9lbs 2ounces, and was 20 1/2 inches long. The diameter of the head and chest was 14 1/4 inches. Kristen is doing great. The full details of the birth will be uploaded to the web site soon. It was a natural child birth with only 2 small interventions...Dr Klikoff broke his water bag @ 10 am and Kristen was forced to drink an entire PEPSI @ 6:10 pm. There was meconium in the water and little Quincy likely inhaled some. This led to a small baby infection discovered at 4pm on April 4th. He was given antibiotics for 60 hours through an IV in his foot. The nurses needed to check the IV every hour which was tough for sleeping. On April 6, he became jandise and needed light treatment for the next 24 hours. Quincy thought the light table was worst thant the birth canal. Although the videos are classic of our glowing baby. We got to stay together as a family through all of this even though Kristen was officially discharged on sunday. Quincy let us stay in his room till tuesday. Quincy is now a week old. He has the sweetest disposition, sleeps all the time, even while pooing & nursing. He is absolutly beautiful. His baby pictures are identical to Walter with Kristen's coloring and hair. The family is enjoying time home together.
