Last few moments at the hospital...
Around 4pm, Tom and Grandpa took Cole and Hayden to the playground. It was shortly after that when the baby started turning blue. I looked at my mom, knew she saw it too and went for the bulb syringe. I don't know how I kept it together and didn't panic - I just kept suctioning and was seconds from screaming for my phone when she turned pink again. She had some choking/spit-up issues in the hospital and every nurse said it would go away in 48 hours. Apparently because she came out so quickly, she didn't go up and down the canal enough times to push the fluid out of her system. They were so nonchalant about it, we figured we were over-reacting. Well, clearly not. Tonight she will be in the bassinet with Tom on the floor next to her and me staring from the bed. No sleeping until we hit 48 hours.
"Mama, I love our baby."
Me too, Bud. Me too.
