I, like Teach, married young and was a teenage mom. I had never been around any babies, (except for my 7 yrs younger brother, and I tried to avoid him much as possible). When I was expecting my first child, I was so afraid something would be wrong with him. Then the day came when my son was born by C-section. I awoke late that day to my husband standing beside my bed, telling me all about the beautiful child we had just had. Then he said, now I have to tell you something....."there is a problem with the baby, he has no teeth." I started crying and screaming, MY BABY HAS NO TEETH, all the nurses ran into my room trying to explain to me, but it didnt soak in. They gave me a hypo shot and kicked Otis out of the hospital and called my Mother. They finally had to show me several other babies that didnt have teeth to convince me my baby was normal......and Otis got to come back and visit.....but I was soooooo mad at him....LOL |
