After 3 Natural Births Delivering 3 Girls, My 4th Daughter Kassidy, was born on my Birthday, January 6, 2007, Complete Opposite way to my Birth Plan.
Emergency Caeserean in which I had never expected, Prepared for or ever even read about. Apgar Score was 4, needing Resuscitating, Oxygen, Not even a Sound. Transferred to Rockhampton, But within 36 hours Siezures started, she Refused Breast/ Bottle. So we were flown to Brisbane Royal Womens Hospital, where Further Tests, MRI etc.. were Performed. Shocked & Hearbroken when we were Delivered the News, that our New Beautiful Baby Girl Kassidy, was Born with Brain Damage.
Today, Near 16mths old, Its Confirmed Cerebral Palsy. Kassidy still has Fluids via NasalGastric Tube, But she now eats Puree Solids, Good Quantities 3-4 times a day. She said her First word, Mum, 5weeks ago. But No other real Sounds or words.
Kassi is only at a rolling Stage so far. Her first visit with Cerebral Palsy League is this Tuesday 30th April, which they intend on starting her with Standing Frames & Other Aides. My Kassidy is an Extremely Beautiful Baby & We Love her to Death, her sisters Adore her also, She is still Perfect in everyway to us, Regardless of her Disability.
