Twenty-two years ago our little Sam was born at LDS Hospital in Salt Lake City, UT. It was the hospital that Daniel was working at during that time (as a Respiratory Therapist), and because of that he could be with Sam behind the scene after he was born. It was really comforting to me that he could be with him.
I remember that my doctor was in surgery, and we had to wait for him to come and deliver the baby. Sam could have been born earlier in the day, so it was a little stressful waiting -- although I had an epidural so I was comfortable, at least. After being in active labor at home all night, being at the hospital finally with an epidural felt relaxing. I wanted to sleep!
During the actual delivery the nurse was so comforting to me - she was calm and loving. I don't know her name, but I'm so thankful for her assistance.
Happy birthday, Samuel Riker Martinez!
