The Big Day


Robert and I got to the hospital around 5:30am - the C-section was scheduled for 8:30am. What a morning. Oma stayed at home with Alexandra, there was no need to have her wait at the hospital for all that time. It would have been too distracting. Since I developed Gestational Diabeties with Anthony, they had extra tests and checks they had to perform. All I could think about was let's get this over with. I was so excited, so nervous, and completely overwhelmed with emotions by the time they took me back. I got the spinal block by myself, Robert patiently waiting back in the room. This time I was sure to mention that they needed to grab Robert before they started. When we had Alexandra they started the c-section without him. It was only a few moments and I could hear that welcome scream and cry. What a beautiful sound
