This was a first for me as a Spokane birth photographer. A vaginal birth in the OR at Deaconess Medical Center. Her birth was touch and go. For a time we all thought she would be having a c/s. Because the baby’s heart rate kept going up and down it was quickly decided to have her in the OR, prepped for a c/s, just in case. But her doctor fought hard to avoid it. For these first time parents nerves were running high. Their family showed up in support and sat in the waiting room for news. She was so strong and brave. Their little boy was born safely via vaginal delivery in the OR.

Glad momma and newborn are doing ok! They often have vaginal births in the OR here if mom is attempting to deliver multiples. They usually have them already on an epidural as well, just in case. I’m glad the let you take the birth photos!
