Some of you may know I don't usually get up so early every morning, except I need to catch a 06:30 flight out from SFO. Today, I got up at 05:30 without alarm clock, why... not because it is St. Patrick Day and I need to run to the supermarket for some Green Beer, because Michele and I have been waiting for this special day for more than 9 months. Our scheduled C Section is 10:00 March 17, 2008, so we got up, finished the usual thing (thanks god we packed last night) as Mommy Michele just "Mi Mi Mo" for a little. We head out the door at 07:35, wanted to stop by Starbuck for a White Mocha, stop by the one by my house and guess what, they run out (can anyone believe this). Right before I step out of Starbucks, Los Gatos Community Hospital called and said our appointment moved up to 08:30 and I still don't have my coffee yet.
Michele doesn't want to change the time, so she called Dr. Totman (her OGBYN) and wanted to stay as planned. So we stop by Michele sister's home to kill some time and drive around to find Starbucks. We arrived and checked in at 08:40, thing are moving pretty fast, couple nurses came around and explain the procedures, handed me the bunny suit for the OR (Operation Room). Signed some papers and get ready for the big show...
I was outside waiting until the OR is all setup, Dr. Totman arrived and Congratulate. "Happy Baby Day" she said, glad she is here to perform the C section. about 15 minutes later, they brought me in. Very interesting setup there, settle myself on the North Side, did some recording, but one of the nurse said no recording. oooh well, I shut it off a little... About 15 minutes, Dr, Totman said we got feet out, so I stood up and took some pictures (can't send those out, sorry, just says he covered in some "white" stuff). Baby Kendrick started to response (Cry baby Cry), pretty loud as well. Get some video feed in HD... warp him up and pass to mommy. So here is his spec...
