The day our Journey finally began was one of the best and most stressful days of my life. His mom has a heart condition and Strep B so we had a room full of people. His mom had an ablation when she was 8 months pregnant and was the only woman to ever have this done so far along in pregnancy. She also had Braxton Hicks for 7 of the 9 months so before Goose ever got here he was going down in the record books. We did not know what would happen during birth due to the heart condition and a C-Section was not an option. So, now the fun begins!!!!!!!!!! 

His mom passed out multiple times and was hooked up to every monitor known to man (well not every one but to us it was) and a doctor we had never met is standing out in the hall argueing with the other doctor as to who is going to birth Goose. We found out that this birth was going in the record books and the doctor who had been with her through it all was suppose to be leaving and this other doctor was suppose to take over. Yes, this was a High Risk Pregnancy Group standing in the hall arguing with each other. The doctor came in and found out she had Strep B and hit the roof. He was very mad and said "We have got to get this baby out NOW"! The pushing has started and he is very big baby for her but she did it! WooooooHooooo now the fun begins!!! 

Goose is here and something is wrong (no they didn't say anything I just knew) I snapped a couple of pics and off to the waiting room to show the family. I showed my Mom and busted into tears. I told her "Something is wrong with him" she said "Why? What did they say?" I said "nothing I just know" and I left the room. I was walking down the hall and I heard someone say "Here comes her Mom". I looked up at that time and you couldn't even see the door there were so many people in the room. I walked in and my daughter handed Goose to me to hold and the NICU was waiting to take him. I went to hand him to the nurse with tears flowing and she said" Well Nana you didn't give him a kiss" I said "Can I?" she said " of course you can" so I gave him a kiss and told him to be strong for Nana and I loved him more than he could ever know. He opened his eyes and looked at me and then shut them back. I then handed my gorgeous grandson to a woman I didn't even know and I cried like a baby. Goose had strep B and that is life threatening to babies. He was going to NICU and Nana couldn't go!!! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Autism-fun-tags-offered-at-kaleidoscope-reflections/221411471272482?sk=photos_stream
