October 24, 2012

October 25,2012 - we said Hello & Goodbye to our first born son. And while that day is one of the most meaningful days of my life - October 24 is just as powerful.  October 24, 2012 - I learned how strong of a bond Oliver and I had. I knew his routine. I knew his touch in my womb. I knew his heartbeat. So when I went to bed the night of the 23rd - I knew that October 24 may be a very scary day.  That morning I woke up - Andrew was already out of the house. I didn't go to work because I knew I would need to call the doctor.  I had a soda the night before in hopes to get him moving. His heart rate was slowing down when I checked before I went to sleep.  I got my Doppler and checked for his heart rate. Nothing.  Silently freaking the hell out.  I called my mom. No answer. She was getting her hair done. I called the salon. Told her it was time. I went to my parents to wait for my mom to go to the doctor with me. I checked for his heart rate again. Nothing.
