As of Today, August 10th, 2011....
I, Momma Panda begin a life documentation of The Adventures Of Panoose. Who was born May 31st, 2011 as Dakota. (No, not after the actress Dakota Fanning either) We'll get into all of that soon enough. I'm new at this, so bare with me.
Sound exciting? It should. Many of Panoose(r) happenings have been going on in just a short 8-9 weeks. I did say that she'd be early, and well, early she was. A heaping 6 weeks early! Born at 34 weeks, and 4 days gestation. Weighing in at 5 lbs, 4 oz. Head as around as a curved around ruler. (adding a 1/2 inch). 17 inches long. WOW! So tiny, but so long. I can't imagine what it would have been like if I carried you full term. Scary thought actually. If any of my readers have personally experienced child birth first hand. Might I add.... Eeeeeeek! It's crazy enough to think that something a foot wide came out of such a confined spaced area.. any bigger, umm... it kinda hurts to think about.
All of the unpleasant moments I've faced for you aside, I look at you now sweet baby, and I cannot believe that you're here. That I helped create you becoming a part of me. As strange as it sounds, I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of my pregnancy with you. It had some ups and downs none the less, but more so ups. I had a few problems, and risks.. but we both turned out alright. As long as I had a happy, healthy, baby... that's all that mattered to me.
I will have to write more about you from the very beginning after I post this. :)
