Pixie - I'm so sorry that it turned out like that ... when Veygas was born, he came out so quickly that he caused a kink in the umbilical cord, so he wasn't breathing for the first minute or so, but they got him breathing (his 1 min agpar score was 3). I remember lying there watching people rush in and having 4 or 5 people standing around him lying on the heat bed .... so I can kind of associate with that surreal feeling you mentioned.
I'm glad everything worked out for you guys - Beth is just adorable!!
ETA: just got back from v's u/s, apparently he has a smaller hernia on the left side as well. I wanted to read the report, but they didn't put it in- they said they faxed it to the referring doc, but fat lot of good that's gonna do me when the paed surgeon is about 100km in the opposite direction!! Plus the referring doc was emergency dept at the hossie! It'll get lost for sure!
