So we had a friend deliver her baby about 2 1/2 weeks early on Monday night. Emergency c-section. The baby was doing well and was put in the nursery so the mom could recover from the c-section.
Eric and I were very excited for our friends on the birth of their 2nd child. Since she delivered at the same hospital as I did, and it is close to work, I was hoping to be able to go and visit with her and meet Ethan's newest little friend.
She informed me that her baby was having some difficulty breathing and was put in the NICU. Different breathing issues than Ethan had, but still any issue resulting in going to the NICU is never good. This morning, I found out that the baby had to have a breathing tube inserted to assist with breathing.
As a mom, my heart goes out to them, as a mom that had this happen almost a year ago, it definitely stirs up a lot of emotions. I am hoping my friend knows I am there if she wants to talk, unless asked I am not willing to discuss my story with her, as that was the last thing I wanted to hear when Ethan was in the NICU. I know the situation surrounding why their baby is on a breathing tube is different than what Ethan went through. Having to see a friend go through what I basically went through almost a year ago is tough.
