three years ago today, jack wyatt grantham was born. i went into natural labor (imagine that!) three days before our scheduled c-section. that was new for me because with sadie, i was induced, and tess was a scheduled section too...but she stayed in until it was time. :)
so, my fabulous doctor decided to do the section that day! (i was already a 2 :) he was delivered at 37 weeks and 3 days. should be fine, right? well, when he came out (glorious!!!), his breathing was labored and the doctors didn't like that. i got to give him some kisses and then they took him into the nursery.
quickly he went from the "regular" nursery to level 1 nicu. diagnosis...he had a surfactant deficiency. poor bub was hooked up to a cpap at first and then upgraded to a nasal cannula. plus a feeding tube. God held us and blessed us during that time. and a week later, we came home!
here is a trip down memory lane...
