H&H It's a Boy. Baden Perry Foster was born December 9th at 12:20 am. He weighs 7 lbs 5oz and was 19 inches long. He has what they call TTN. From what I understand he was born so fast that the pressure from being born that would normally push the amniotic fluid out of the lungs did not occur he still had a little fluid in his lungs. Because of it his lungs are not working quite up to par and needs to be on oxygen until his body gets rid of or absorbs that fluid. He isn't in any real danger of long term effects but he cant feed with out a feeding tube until his respiratory rate comes down. Its all a waiting game till his body takes care of the issue. Just tough to see him with so many tubes and monitors hooked up to him. Hopefully the issue will be taken care of soon. We are anxious to take him home.
