Surprise Mom and Dad - I'm Here
I had been having light contractions on and off all week-end.
I figured that it was just false labor, but I stayed off from my feet and
drank extra water to be safe. After all, it had been a difficult
pregnancy, so better safe than sorry.
I referred to Mondays as Monday Madness because every Monday I
had to spend the day having non-stress tests and ultra-sounds done.
Diabetes, age, and history of extreme hemmoraging put me in a very
high risk group.
I woke up Monday feeling fine. My husband and I headed out the
door for our Monday Madness. When we arrived at the hospital for
the non-stress tests, the doctors and nurses were busy with a woman
in the labor room. (We have a very small hospital. Usually, there is no
one else on the maternity floor except for us!)
They got me all hooked up to the monitors and went back down the
hall. I just laid there praying for that momma.
Suddenly, my contractions started again. I asked my husband to turn
the monitors so that I could see how the baby was reacting to the
contractions. To my surprise, her heart rate was dropping way down
with each contraction!
I sent for the nurse! At first, an LPN came in to see what the problem
was. When I told her, she calmly said that everything was alright. She
went out and got an RN. She too tried to act calm, but ran down the
hall to get the doctor. Since this was my 12th pregnancy, I knew
everything was NOT alright. The doctor came in and watched me and
the monitors, finally determining that I was in real labor. The baby
was under serious distress. He informed me that I needed an
emergency c-section ASAP. He hoped to be able to wait for an
emergency team to arrive from the city hospital, but if the baby took a
turn for the worse, we would have to go ahead without them. The city
team had the equipment and medication that it would take to save the
baby's life.
The doctor asked if I needed him to repeat what was going on. I
replied, "No. I know that everything is going to be alright. I just don't
know what I have to go through to get to 'alright'."
We were able to wait for the city team. They flew up in a helicopter.
They rushed me into the operating room.
When Sarah was born, the nurse stopped for a split second for us to
see her. I turned and saw my little girl with a head full of black hair,
then she was gone.
That was the hardest part!
Sarah was out in the other room screaming! She was so active that
she wore herself out. They had to put her on a respirator, which she
stayed on for her first five days of life.
was told that they were waiting for me to be able to see Sarah before
she was rushed off to the big city.
They wheeled my bed up beside her incubator. I reached in and
touched her hand. She squeezed my finger! After a very few minutes
they took her away.
The next morning, I was up on my feet waiting for the doctor. He
asked if I wanted to stay longer, and I told him I was leaving! I jumped
into a vehicle and headed out for a three hour ride to the city!
That is such a long story.
God has been soooo good to us!
Sarah was born at 31 weeks. Our little hospital had never delivered
such an early baby!
She came home four days before turning one month old!
She is completely healthy. Not one problem!!!
Thank you, Jesus! Thank you for your miracle healing power!
She weighed 4 pounds and 2 ounces at birth. She was 16 1/2 inches
long. They expected her to be half that size.
Because I was diabetic, she gained weight too fast. That was the only
part of the diabetes that helped her.
We later found out that the diabetes was killing off the placenta, and in
turn killing our little girl.
When Sarah turned two months, I was tested for diabetes again. The
doctors were concerned because I had problems with gestational
diabetes at the onset of this pregnancy. They thought for sure that it
didn't leave after my previous pregnancy. Woohoo! The two hour
gluclose tolerancy test came back normal. Thank you, Jesus!!!
The devil had a plan for our destruction, but God has a plan for good!
I am so thankful that we serve such a big GOD!
