Having the Dr hand me a 6 and a half pound tiny baby boy and thinking to myself, “I made this”. Probably means more to me than many if not most since we knew going in that we would only get one.
I was too scared the day he was born to appreciate it. He was a RCH over 4lbs and pretty early. Doc telling me "don't know if he'll make it, next 2 days are critical. Mom's not getting better either - we'll need to keep her here too. Don't go in there yet, still working on her" - took the bloom of that real fast for me at 22.
