I wanted to annouce to everyone who helped me, our little babygirl has finally arrived, inclosed is story and?

Awww! She's so beautiful! I just loved your birth story! I am so sorry you had to endure two miscarriages.....I can't even imagine. I can appreciate though because we nearly lost my son when he was born.

I was 38 weeks pregnant with my first child when I went in to have a routine ultrasound. The baby was measuring a little large and the doc wanted to see if the baby could fit through my pelvis or if I would need to schedule a C-Section.

During the ultrasound, suddenly everything got frantic! Doctors were coming in looking at the ultrasounds. They told me that my baby had one of his lungs collapsed and that his heart was too small and that his liver was on the wrong side of his body!!!! The doctor's told me that I needed an emergency c-section right now.

The doctor told me to be prepared for one of two things: give birth to a dead baby or have a baby who was severely deformed and handicapped. I had never been so scared in my life!!! I just wanted my baby to live!! The handicap part didn't matter to me.

My son had died less than a minute before he was born. The team at Arnold Palmer successfully rescusitated him, but he was on life support. Basically he was a vegetable. As they were wheeling him out to go to NICU, they paused a moment so I could look at him for the first time.

I gasped! He was so beautiful and perfect!! He was not a deformed monster that I had envisioned. It turns out that my son had a hole in his thoracic duct that leaked lymphatic fluid all throughout his tiny body. The extra fluid caused so much pressure that it collapsed his lung, constricted his heart and liver. It was only the fluid that made it look as if his liver was on the wrong side of his body. It wasn't a deformity. The doctors inserted chest tubes to drain the excess fluid. My son was born weighing 8 pounds, 15 ounces and once the fluid drained, he was only 5 pounds!! That is a lot of fluid!!

My son was on life support for a week, then in the NICU for 3 weeks. He pulled through and is doing great! He is 3years old now, but he does have autism and epilepsy. But I don't care! My little boy is alive! He is happy and doing great! He just learned to walk last year and now he is learning to speak a few words.
