Oh hey, did I mention WHY they called “CODE C! CODE C!”?
When I first saw Leah, her feet were dark purple and bruised, and the doctors told me that it took them a while to pull the baby out of her mama’s belly because her head was really tucked in there but also because her foot was stuck in the birth canal. But here’s what they didn’t tell us until the next day, when we saw the doctor who did the original exam that led to the crash c-section: When she did the exam, the doctor could actually feel Leah’s feet starting to come out. That’s right. Our little troublemaker tried to jump out feet first.
I SAID she tried to jump out feet first and everyone laughed. Who’s laughing now. Ha! She did!!!!
