As you have read Sophia Huber has arrived, and she is quite cute if I don't say so myself! She came into this world with great gusto and might! Last we spoke we were heading to the hospital at 6 am for the scheduled induction. Well as you can see we made it there, but the inside scoop that you might not know is that I walked to the Hospital (about 5-6 blocks). I figured there was no harm in it since I was not in labor and thought it might even help labor come sooner. Not to bore you with details but we checked in at 6 a.m. By 7 a.m. I was all registered and waiting, Around 8a.m my friend Patosin was starting to be administered. Around 11 I told Patrick that if he indeed wanted to go get lunch that would be the time. Little did I even know at the time that I was correct. Around 12-12:30 they broke my water and then the games began! One nurse kept saying that she did not trust me enough to leave the bedside and that was a really good idea since our little Sophie decided she was done baking at 1:36 p.m. With in 30 seconds of life she tried to cry, (which is very good for children with CDH), With in one minute of life she was ventilated and her journey to recovery had begun. Things at this point are obviously a little sketchy in my mind but if I remember right I had about 4-5 doctors and or nurses around me and she had easily 6-10 around her. I did not realize why the room was so big until I saw how many people were in it. I did get to see Sophie before they whisked her off to the University hospital NICU and they also wheeled her by when she was ready to be transferred to Children's RCNIC.
Less then 24 hours after her arrival I was checked out of University Hospital and on my way to see her (The Hospital would not let me walk out of the hospital but when I reached the door I kindly thanked the transport team and walked 2 blocks to get some Chipotle for lunch then walked the 5-6 blocks back to Children's to see her. Here are the Pict's of her proud parents.
