Thomas

What they would let me do is I could stand outside against the wall, and there was a nurse that was peering through a little square window, and she was telling me what was going on. The speed in which this happened, the time that Kristen got there to the time that they actually delivered my son was less than 10 minutes. This was an escalated type of emergency.

I'm sure they feared the worst based off what the doctor had told them. You're pure fight or flight, numb, head forward kind of thing that people do as a response. After my son was born, it was at 5.37 p.m. and the nurse looked through the window and called in to ask if I could look through the window too. And after it was given the go ahead, I was able to look in.

I'm sure they were probably making sure that my son was alive. I saw him on the table and I could see Kristen still completely, for lack of a better word, I could see her insides and her guts right there on the table still. Then they kind of immediately had a team that was going to take my son up to NICU.

So that's where I went, which I didn't know was kind of where they took the worst case scenarios. I remember being able to touch his hand and walking through this maze that was the hospital that we were in. He's got a bunch of things on him, but he looks fine. Some of the first pictures I have is he's in like an infant stretcher with the glass case over it.

There's a team of nurses, and there may have been a doctor with us, but I definitely remember nurses that were obviously carrying along things that are monitoring his vitals. And then the main doctor, his name was Dr. Thomas, ironically enough, said to me, he looks like a normal baby boy, but he is not. He has not gone through anything that is normal.

We're going to be checking him for all sorts of things. And he started listing the most serious things first, things like bleeding in the brain, brain damage due to lack of oxygen. It seemed like the list just kept going on and on. I'll never forget. I think they hooked him up to antibiotics immediately. They hooked him up to a feeding tube.

He had a CPAP on that was helping him breathe, things like that. I was able to stay with him while they were still doing those things. I was kind of preoccupied with him, just thinking that I would get an update whenever there was something to learn about Kristen's condition. I trusted that Kristen was in the best care.

The doula was in a waiting area. I was obviously preoccupied with Theo and luckily things were progressing well with him. At this point, things start to slow down. It's a few hours later and I'm talking to Kristen's mom on the phone. Everything happened so quick and it happened in the afternoon that no one had really been able to come up and see us.
