I'm not sure if this counts as a flash back Friday, but I was looking through our pictures, saw these and remembered that I had never posted them yet, so here goes!
This is 5 months ago, when Andrew went in for his hernia surgery. After trying to get it done 3 times but always canceling it due to Andy having a cold it was nice to get it done.
Andy was sedated around 1pm then they did the MRI of his neck and right after that he was brought to surgery. We were so thankful that they could do both at the same time. Surgery went well except that they had trouble getting the breathing tube down him throat. So they got the Ear Nose and Throat Specialist to come and see him. Somewhere between the surgeon and the specialist we were forgotten about, both thinking that the other would let us know when we could see Andrew. So we ended up waiting for almost 3 hours! We did a lot of thinking and praying in those 3 hours, because we had no idea what they had found ect...
But at 6:45 we got to go and see our baby. He was doing good, the specialist had not found anything, and the surgery had gone well. I got to hold him for a bit which was great!!
The next morning we went back and we were both able to hold him, he was moved out of NICU into the regular recovery room. He was off of all monitors but still had the nasal prongs on, notice I said on, not in. :) He still had not forgotten how to push those things out of the way. :)
By 5 that afternoon he was discharged and we once again had our baby back. It was so nice to be able to leave the hospital after 1 night instead of 90. :)
Now for the pictures... sorry about them being blurry or dark, they were taken on Josh's phone.
Andy waiting his turn in the MRI, just before they put him to sleep, by this point he was VERY hungry and he took his soother, something he did not normally do.
Getting to hold him after the surgery, it brought back MANY memories!!! He looked to helpless!!
The next day, Andy and Daddy, just waiting till he can go home!!
AWE!!!!
Notice the prongs? :)
So happy to have my baby back!!!
