A Girl and Her Nightmares

On February 16,2019 Easton Stewart Duff entered the world with a head full of curly brown hair, blue eyes and looking just like his daddy. He weighed 5 pounds and 3 ounces and 20.5 inches long. I thought he was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. I had never felt such love, I could stay like that forever.

While holding him the nurse checked his vitals and saw that his temperature was low. Easton was took from my arms and placed in the warmer. I couldn’t understand what was going on. Why did this have to happen? They couldn’t get his temperature up so the DR decided to ship him to UK NICU to figure out why his temperature was so low and for further testing. They took him to the nursery while waiting on the ambulance and started an IV and monitored his vitals. He was given a vitamin K shot which he did not take well. His O2 dropped and respiratory was called to his side. He recovered, as he would do many times over the next week. He was sent to the NICU early Sunday morning on the 17th. My worst nightmare was coming true.
