I went into the hospital at 6:30 am for my schedule c-section. After a long wait I finally got into a room and set up with an IV and got everything ready for the c-section. It was time for me to walk to the OR when the doctor came in and said they had a emergency c-section come up so we were bumped to a little bit later time. I was getting so anxious to meet our little man. I was worried how it would all go and if he would be okay, it seemed like the time went by sooo slowly. Finally it was our turn to go to the OR. When I walked in there were 20+ people in this little OR room trying to get everything set up.. it seemed like everyone was running around like crazy. I was getting really nervous, felt faint and started to cry, it was so overwhelming in there with all the people, I could hear the NICU team going over how to resuscitate a baby, and the doctors going over there plan as to how they were going to cut me and if they couldn't get him out to cut vertical. Everything/everybody was just going a million miles/ hour... Then they got the spinal in and put the blue paper in front of my face and it seems like a century went by before they said he is out... I waited for a cry... and then he did, he cried, just a little cry and then from the corner of my eye I saw this little baby fly by my head and on the warmer. I couldn't really see what they were doing to him but there was probably about 6+ people just circled around him.. this was the scariest moment of my life... I just cried and prayed... Pray for everything to be okay, pray for him to cry again... and then he did, he started screaming and crying! And Brad looked at him and said Colton is fine, he is doing great and just gave me this look like everything is going to be fine. I was so relieved! He had a little bit of fluid that they suctioned out and gave him a little bit of oxygen but then he was fine!! He got a 8 out of 10 at 1 min old then at 5 mins old a 9 out of 10. I could help but cry, I was crying so hard I could barely see him when they brought him over to me. I was so happy, so thankful that he was okay, he was breathing, that he was HERE! Then Brad went with the NICU team to take Colton to the NICU and double check to make sure he was okay. Colton was only on oxygen for a couple of mins just to help him breath a little better! I couldn't believe it! Words can not describe how awesome it felt to hear him cry and to know he was okay! He is a Miracle, He is our Miracle!
