Miracle in two Weeks

Chapter fourteen

The day had come for us to welcome our baby boy ,my nerves were up, I was so excited, and just ready to hold our little boy.
I had packed my bag the night before and was ready for the hospital.  We headed out about 10: 00 since I was scheduled at 12 for my cesarean, I wanted to be sure they had enough prep time. Once we got to the hospital they  took me back to recovery and got me all set up on the monitor and IV .
The nurse blew two veins trying to get my IV in, which pissed me off. She decided to have a more experienced nurse put it in ,once that was done they did my catheter. 
Ali and my mom came to sit with me, and we talked and joked while waiting for them to take me back.
I started having pain,  I realized after a few I was in labor based on the pain I was feeling.

"What's wrong with you?" Ali  asked me ,he was watching my face.

"Damn catheter put me in labor!" I told him.

"Really? "

"Yeah , told you this would happen."

Ali was sweet trying to hold my hand and make me laugh. I love how he is always there for me and I only felt good when he was touching me.

The nurses  finally came to get me and told Ali and mom  to wait in the waiting room . They kissed me goodbye and left the room. I had tried to get Ali to go in with me but he was not gonna do it.

I got back to the operating room and they had me walk to the table and sit .
The nurse looked at me as I was walking and made a face, I am guessing it was because I was walking hunched over crying from the pain.

"Are you ok?" She asked me.

"No, having a lot of pain" I told her.

"Are you in labor?" She asked me. I responded with yes I am. I told her it started after the catheter was put in.

"I'll be damned." She said. She told me that's a first for her.

I had made the joke to my husband that it would be my luck to be in labor the day of surgery, and it was suddenly  not that funny. 

I bet you I go into labor on the day of my surgery because baby wants to hang in there till then.  Yea eating my words now that it happened. 
Lynn was in the OR with me and got to see her baby brother and hold him first.
After my surgery they wheel me into recovery and I asked for my husband.  The nurse  handed me my beautiful little boy ,and he was just so precious. It felt so amazing having a baby again, and having him with a man that has made me so happy. 

Ali came in to the room and I told the nurse to give him the baby. she placed our son  in his daddy's arms and the best moment was seeing the happiness in Daddys eyes and the smile on his face.
I spent three days in the hospital before conning home, I was so glad to be back in my own bed to get rest.
Kitty stayed the first four or five days to help me to get sleep,  amir was not sleeping that good yet so I appreciated the help so I could get some sleep. After those few days kitty went home and I took over with  amir at night.  After a couple days I was exausted and just wanted to get sleep.
" I am so exausted, it's 5 am and I think I only slept three hours." I told mom since she was awake to take her pills.
" I can sit with him so you can sleep some more." She told me.
So she sat with him while I slept for 2 hrs, and I took a nap while he slept in the afternoon. We did this for a few weeks then mom started staying with her ex husband again, so I resumed full care again .
Amir started sleeping better during the night but still woke up for a few feedings.

" Mom I can take him on nights I don't have school." Lynn offered .

" That would be great ,thank you. " I told her.

I had been sleeping on the sofa bed, with Amir so Ali could sleep for work.  Daddy had him during the morning before work and off and on through the day on his days off .
Amir finally started sleeping more at night waking about four times to eat , sometimes taking an hour or two to go back to sleep. At this point I put him in his crib to sleep at night , so I could sleep in my bed.

During this time we were in and out of court for pre trials as well as meeting with the attorney.  This court issue was waying down on Ali some , plus he had more on his mind now with his father falling ill.

We wanted a trial to prove Husain, his wife, and mother were lying there butts off about what happened that day. We did not want to let it go ,what they did was evil and wrong.
In the end our attorney pushed for a deal and my husband finally gave in.
So now with that done we could focus on our life and family.

Sometimes you just got to walk away from the idiocy of the situation. 

When a lier convinces them self the lie is true ,you can never get them to see their wrong.
