Thatcher Gray Leonard was born with
his face towards the sky.
July 14th, 2008 - 6.44am - 7 lbs 7 oz - 21
inches long
Ten days late, we decided to induce.
Machines showed fetal distress;
whenever I had a contraction, his heart rate plummeted like
a stone.
A caesarian was performed early the next morning.
His umbilical cord was wrapped around him three times,
the contractions were cutting off his lifeline.
