It was 05:10 on Sunday, Sep 26, when my water broke (very funny feeling, by the way). We made sure we picked up a few things that weren't already in the "hospital bag" and got in the car. After weeks of stressing about a possible gridlock on the way from our home to the NY Presbyterian Hospital, the early Sunday morning trip proved to be the shortest ever: 25 minutes!
We checked in at the hospital, while the staff was looking at me a little funny, with comments like: "you seem to be too happy to be in labor". Yes, I was - as my contractions hadn't started yet. The doctors had to put me on Oxytocin, and eventually the contractions came.
After 25 hours (yes, it's not a typo), it was time to push now. And following another hour of pushing (with the help of the great delivery team), our Derin Ege joined us at 7 AM on September 27, 2010.His weight was 7 lbs 3 oz (3.3 kgs), and 19.7 inches (50 cm) tall.
Things seemed just fine, but it turned out that he had developed respiratory distress, and they had to take him away immediately.
I didn't even get a chance to hold him, but thankfully his dad got that chance for about 30 seconds.
