Can I ask for some prayers please?

My girlfriend had her little boy, Nathan Dean, yesterday morning after 2-1/2 hours of pushing. Her mom said every time she pushed he stopped breathing and he was gray when he was born and did not cry. He was suctioned and taken to NICU where he is on a respirator and is breathing but they are awaiting the results of the brain scans to see if there is going to be any permanent damage. And, of course, the doctors want to send this first time momma home without her baby. I can't even imagine the hell they are going through right now. This is supposed to be the happiest moment of their life. My heart is hurting so bad for them right now. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the test results show good news.

If you could say a little prayer for Jaime, Kevin & Baby Nathan I would really appreciate it.

Update:

Well, I talked to Jamie's mom last night. They seem to be receiving good news as far as the brain scans and the nurses says he has a good set of lungs but mom and dad had yet to hear them last night. I'm waiting for another update. Thank you all again for your prayers. They seem to be working!!!

OH Kathi how scary for them! Tons of prayers and positive thoughts to them. I cannot even bgin to imagine how hard that must be for her.
 
Oh my goodness that's so scary :( I'll keep them in my thoughts and send some good vibes their way.
 
Definitely in my thoughts and prayers. Thank goodness for modern medicine, incredible doctors and a loving family.
 
I'll be thinking about them. These stories always hit home for me because my best friend Jen had the same type of situation happen with their little Cassie and you're right, its just heartbreaking to think about what's supposed such a happy day turning into such a sad one. Much love going out to them!

I am so sorry to hear that your friend is going through this...I am praying for ALL of them, please keep us updated so we know how baby Nathan is doing.
 
Oh, how frightening for them. That is just so incredibly sad. My heart goes out to them and I hope the test results are good news.
 
{{HUGS}} I can't even imagine all the emotions she's having right now! Will definitely keep their family in my prayers!
 
This is why I love you girls!!! I can't thank you enough! I have a call in to her mom - I don't want to bother Jamie right now. So, as soon as I know anything I will update my original post. I'm just trying to keep thinking positive.

Rhett had fluid in his lungs but because he didn't go through the birth canal and he was in NICU for about 6 hours which was horrible for me. Matt was with him the entire time. He wouldn't even leave when the nurse told him to get something to eat. LOL!

Again, thank you all for your kind words and thoughts!
 
Wishing the very best for them!!! One of my best friends from college just had a preemie...first baby....sent home without him until May sometime...just awful. Here's hoping they get to take that little one home VERY soon! :)
