Baby Couldn't Wait

She's here!

Avery May Jackson

Born 10/5/08 at 8:56 p.m.

4 lbs. 13 oz. (I'll explain the size later)

18 inches long

Long story short, we are finally home from the hospital. Avery is tiny but perfectly healthy and developed. I, however, was suffering from HELLP Syndrome and could not be released until my liver enzymes and blood pressure went down and my platelets went up. It was this syndrome that also made her such a light weight since my capillaries were constricted throughout my pregnancy making the placenta and my baby small. We are all happy to be in our own house and on the mend and we will let you all know when we are ready to visit or have visitors. Until then, enjoy the slide show!

Thank you for posting pics! I've been dying over here!! I can't wait to hold her, but I'll wait for you to feel better and give the okay (and don't worry, we won't bring Mikayla). She is seriously the cutest little thing.

Hello Jackson family! I am a long time family friend of Joes (Tadd's sister)Congrats on your new little one, she is absolutely beautiful. I also got HELLP Syndrome with Sienna. She was born 6 weeks early weighing in at 3.5 lbs. I have 4 women in my ward who got HELLP in their pregnancies as well. Crazy huh? Glad you and Avery are doing well. The first few weeks are hard but hang in there and try to sneak as many naps as you can. You deserve it.

P.S. We have the same blog layout. hehe. Tell Joe I said hello and congrats on being a new daddy.
