This horrendous picture of me was taken by Bryan while waiting over an hour for my OB/GYN to show up for my cesarean.
The nurses told me that my doctor is always late, but she can do a cesarean in 5 minutes. I really didn’t mind. It’s not like I was planning on catching a movie after my delivery or anything, so why get upset? Too bad the mom on the other side of the room didn’t feel the same way. She had been waiting for the doctor for over 2 hours and she was broadcasting her frustration for everyone to hear.
As predicted, the actual cesarean was super quick! I heard my doctor exclaiming something about “cheeks, cheeks!” And when she held baby Jasmine up in the air for us to see, we were sure greeted with a plump baby with the roundest little face ever. The doc told us in good humor that it was hard for her to get a grip on the baby because her cheeks were in the way. Something to remember our baby by!
