We started our day bright and early being at the hospital at 6:00a.m. We got to L&D and they got us all checked in and but in alittle room. They gave us a bunch of paper work to feel out while they started my IV's and monitors. Once we got the paper work done we just sat and watched tv. My mom got there around 8:30 and they let her come back to say Hi an wish us luck. The nurse came in and told us the doctor was running late. I was already so antsy I just wanted it to be over with so I could have my sweet boy here. But we waited and waited for what seemed like forever, when really it was only 2 hours. They walked me back into the OR and had me sit on the bed. They then had me bend over so they could place my epidural, which wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I then got to lay back and just relax. I was soon numb and couldn't really feel anything and they started the surgery. I was so excited and couldn't stop smiling. From where JJ was at he thought I was crying and started asking me if I was in pain and I said no that I was fine but so excited. I noticed his eyes were filled with tears which then made me start crying. Then my heart sank because the doctor goes, "Is the cord wrapped around his neck?" I guess my blood pressure shot up because the machine started beeping and the doctor looked at me and said,"He's ok, its common for the cord to be around their neck once." I relaxed and within seconds heard my little boy start to cry. They lifted him over the curtain so we could see him and we were both are eyes were glued on him. They rushed him off to clean him and get his stats. Soon JJ brought him back in and sat by me so I could see our cute little boy, while they finished sewing me up. I was then taken into recovery and they took Kyler in to be bathed and warm up a little more. They brought him into me while in recovery and I got to hold him for the first time. My mom, grandma, and aunt got to come back and see us. I was finally stable enough to go to a room, when we got there we were welcomed by my whole family, JJ's mom and two sisters. They all took turns holding him, and then gave us sometime with him. My parents came and went all through out the day, that afternoon we were visited by my Uncle Lamonte, Grandma A. Aunt Michelle, and my friend Donna. We then got to take a little nap before the next crowd of people came. JJ's dad and sister, my Uncle Steve, and my friend Ashlee. We were so grateful to everyone who came and saw us and welcomed our sweet boy! We then spent the rest of the night sleeping and loving on our beautiful sweet boy!
