July 14, 2016 was the best/scariest day of my life. I went into the hospital at 6 a.m. Thursday morning to meet my sweet baby boy. They started my IV and my doctor broke my water at around 8. After hours of labor (which was painless to me) I dilated all the way to a

9 1/2. I was stuck there for two hours. My doctor then decided to do an emergency C-Section (I was terrified). As I was being prepped for surgery I had many thought run through my head. My main concern was pain. My epidural only numbed the left side of my body. I felt every bit of pain once the surgery started on my right side. I have never hurt so much in my entire life. I constantly focused on my fiancé (Devonta) I heard the nurse say get your camera ready daddy and he got up. I shut my eyes for a split second and when I opened themI witnessed the most amazing thing. The way my fiancé looked at our son made my heart melt it was precious. I never knew much you could love someone until I looked into my sons eyes and watched his daddy look at him. Mommy and Daddy love you more than you will ever know baby boy.
