I gave birth to my son, Calvin on 11/7/07. I was induced at 39 1/2 weeks after a very serious bout of PUPPPS (I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy!) Anyway, after 3 hours of pushing and an epidural he was born! We enjoyed the first few hours with family and friends visiting and then around 4 hours after he was born, the nurses felt that something was wrong and took him back to the nursery, and eventually the NICU. It turned out that he has a congenital heart defect and they couldn't get his oxygen saturation levels where they needed to be. When the cardiologist stopped in, they found that he had a condition called TAPVR, which can only be corrected with open heart surgery. So, at one month old, my baby went through open heart surgery to "re-route his veins". It was the scariest month of my life, but he did great and now at 8 months old, you would never even know.
