I was working as a physical therapist at The Mayo Clinic and my husband was a medical resident in 1992 when my son was born.
I had a healthy pregnancy and routine delivery. He was born 7lbs 7 ounces and was perfect in every way. I was a happy new mom. My first day at home I stood up from the couch and felt a deep pressure in my pelvis and immediately wondered if I was having another baby.
Could they have somehow missed a second baby during my 2-day hospital stay? Looking back I know how silly this sounds but I just had no idea what was happening! I called my doctor and was seen in the clinic that same day.
