Monday, May 16, 2011 at 1:21 pm Matthew Cataylo West was born. He weight 8.7 lbs and 21 inches.
Before I left home that morning I took time to prepare myself for the c-section scheduled. Honestly, I was freaking out deep inside… but I tried not to show it. I take it easy, showing that everything will be fine… blow dry my hair, put little make-up and put on my nice little white dress. So when I am laying in bed won’t be so looking awful. Babe said, we are running late, I said they will not going to start without me. At 10:00am Babe, myself and his mom are heading to the hospital.
We head straight to the emergency to register and signed some documents. As we walk thru the hallway people were saying “happy birthday”, they knew I am heading to c-section. Which makes me smile… but fear inside me.
The operation took one hour and half with Dr. Slaton. It was pretty intense kind of feeling. I am not sure if I will do it again. It seems to me that half of me is dead and half is alive. There was a moment when I felt like I am having trouble breathing, suddenly someone just said lets put this oxygen on to help you breathe. I am guessing they can see on the monitor what I feel on current situation. But I made it… I am healthy and my incision are getting better now and Matthew is very healthy.
Thank you God!
