SB - she just wasn't breathing and she didn't start breathing for about 1/2 an hour. None of the doctors could explain it, but it does sometimes happen. I believe she was knocked unconscious during the delivery. She was moving only minutes beforehand but I think the actual birth knocked her out, so her reflexes didn't kick in and tell her to breathe. Her heartbeat was strong the whole time. She had some meconium aspiration (also not uncommon cause I was 11 days post-dates) and the Bear thinks that some was blown back into her lungs when they were using the bag to give her oxygen, which made it worse. The CMO came up to explain everything to us after she was released to the ward with us and he said that she won't have any ongoing problems as a result, it's just one of those things that sometimes happens, and they don't really know why.
