Bo Preston Brandt is Here!


After three days of induction our son was born at The University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics at 3:57 am. He as 3 pounds 12 ounces and 17 1/4 inches long. I was able to see him right after he was born, he was soon taking to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. He required a little assistance with breathing and keeping warm. I wasn't allowed to go see Bo for 24 hours after he was born because my blood pressure was too high. That was a day and night of torture. Heath would go over to the NICU and take pictures of Bo and bring them back to me in my hospital room. It was such a surprise to see he was a boy! I was 100% sure that he was a girl! Heath was 100% he was a boy! Heath was right!
