The Bridges of My Life

Dr. Bellardo is the best doctor. He was always so patient, caring, and understanding. He was on our journey with us from day one; even when we were having problems conceiving. Towards the end of our pregnancy, I was used to seeing him so often, it was as if he were part of our family. If anyone is looking for the best ob/gyn in Nashville he is the one to get!

Proud, but exhausted, Mommy and Daddy.

Josie weighing in at a "whopping" 6lbs. 10.2oz!

And.....here she is.....

After 30 long hours of labor, Jeremy and I, decided to have a c-section. I had only dialated to a 7 and I was so exhausted. So as you can see we are both "suited up" and ready to bring our new addition into our family. I wasn't really nervous at all in this photo because I was just so ready for the labor to be over. Having a c-section ended up being the best decision because the umbilical cord was wrapped around Josie's neck. Because of this, each time I had a contraction it choaked her and caused her heartrate to drop very low. It was really scary. But God came through and kept her safe.
