I gave birth to my daughter which she was 7.5lbs and she was born in "Columbia Presbyterian Hospital" in New York City in 2005. This was my second child, but my first girl so I was excited about buying the new baby girl clothes and the works!
I do have to admit that I had a rough pregnancy because I had anemia and my iron storage was very low. They were not able to give me iron infusions because of my pregnancy and I just had to wait until my baby was born. I had to see a high risk pregnancy doctor, but I had several tests done to make sure the baby was fine. Everything pointed out that my baby was absorbing all my vitamins and sucking out everything from me, but every medical test showed she had no medical conditions that had to alarm us at all.
I was doing everything by the book, I took my prenatal vitamins and went to every doctor's visit on time. I did not smoke nor did I drink alcohol (of any kind) during my pregnancy; I was told to drink a glass a wine a month, but refused to drink anything that contained alcohol.
I worked throughout my pregnancy in New York City and did lots of walking on the job. The best part of this pregnancy was that I did a lot of walking which made my labor much quicker. When it was time for me to give birth to my baby, it was the quickest delivery ever. When I mean quick, I literally gave birth so fast that my doctor could not make it on time and his partner had to be there. We decided to name my baby girl "Angelina Marie" and she was so precious and little. Her oxygen was good and she had to problems at all in the delivery room.
Just having two kids was a turning point for me in the way that, I had to think where it would be better to live and have them grow-up. I family member told us one day to visit them in Easton, Pennsylvania during my pregnancy and I have to admit.. I fell in love with Pennsylvania and my older son loved it too. We moved to Forks Township (Easton) when Angelina was 3 months old. I loved the fact that everyone had children in our neighborhood and their friendliness as well.
As a baby.. Angelina did not show no signs of Autism at all when she was little.
