After some delay and a few issues with the logistics trying to birth what would be a monster baby, Oskar Aaron came into our world this morning at 3:35 am. Poor Jenn had to stay up all night fighting the good fight, struggling to deliver a 8 lb 14.5 oz baby vaginally. For some time, it was apparent to everyone except the staff at the Hospital that there was no way this was possible. She was so tired, beaten down by this kid. To top it off, OHSU is a trauma facility, and there were two emergencies at this same time, taking up both Anesthelogists that were on staff early Saturday morning. Her Epidural had slipped and she was going through the contractions without meds. Not a good time. In addition, the staff thought that Jenn could deliver the baby on her own. I have no medical background. I have never delivered a baby or even seen one delivered until this morning, but even I knew that her delivering this mongo baby wasnt going to happen without surgery. Eventaully, the Dr came to her senses and a C-section was ordered. That is how we got my son.
