Welcome to the World Manning... ( birth story)

After being on bed rest for almost 2 weeks at the hospital , On April 21 morning i woke up so energetic and happy, i took off the hospital gown , i took a shower and i did my make up.... early that morning my husband took my phone because we were going to get new phones that day, so i was without phone i only had my iPad with me and i was using the hospital WiFi, around 4:30 Pm they brought me my dinner, it was good :) salmon my favorite , i ate and around 5 i had to go to the bathroom, when i was sitting in there i felt that something was wrong, so i called the nurse and she came right away... i told her i was feeling something weir coming out.....
she called the Dr on call that day... the doctor came and she checked me and she started calling a lot of people and nurses, i started asking what is happening, the doctor said the baby is coming, but we have to go and do an ultrasound to see the position of the baby, i was so scared and the WORST THING was that i did no had my cellphone, how i was going to tell Chis that i was having the baby, and i started crying and crying , the nurse that was taking care of me that day held my hand and she asked me why i was crying, i told her i didn't had a cellphone to call my husband and family and that i didn't wanted to be alone while having the baby...
 she borrow me her cellphone and i called Chris , and i just told her the baby is coming , please hurry up... they took me on the elevator to the labor and delivery,and they did the ultrasound, the doctor looked at me and said we are going to do an emergency C section right know , she brought me some papers i had to sign , and then they just took my pants and started preparing me for the surgery i started crying more and more, i just wanted my husband Chris to be there, i was so scared and worried for the baby... the anesthesiologist was so nice to me he was holding my hand and wiping my tears , and then i hear Chris, and i saw him coming in dressing like a Dr ...  they just waited for Chris to sit up and they started opening me... it was so fast that they didn't even put a gown on me, i had my C section with my shirt and bra.... CRAZY...

while they were doing the surgery Chris was holding my hand so tight and i was just looking to the lick in the sealing of the room, thinking about my baby, about how much i loved him and just prying for him, i was so scared, i wanted him to survive,... it was so hard for me in that moment...

then the Dr told Chris to get up because they were going to pull the baby out, and that was when i hear the mos sweet cry ever....

Manning Christopher Hoyt was born at 28 weeks of gestation  on APRIL 21 AT 6:22 PM  his birth weight was 2 pounds 9 oz and the was 14 inches long.... i didn't see him because they passed him to the NICU right away , it was a wonderful feeling my baby was here.....


they took me to a room after the surgery, i was so thirsty,but they told me i could not drink anything for a while, i was sooooooo HIGH for all the pain drugs i don't even remember a lot of things ...

i just remember they came around 7 pm to take to see Manning for the first time , they took me on the hospital bed because i was not able to walk,

we got there to the NICU and i saw my little baby, i was so scared to see him, i wanted him to be OK, he was there he was doing OK he only had oxygen they did not put him on a ventilator at all, and he was opening his Eyes , i wonder what he was thinking lol... maybe he was saying OH man i was so comfy on my mommy's belly ...

what a great FEELING... that was the first day of our journey , i was so scared but the love i felt when i saw my baby for the first time has been the best thing in my life.
