As soon as I held her in my arms. I didn't get to right away though.. Some kind of infection had developed between her mother and her, and as she was cut from her mother she could not breathe by herself. The doctors kicked me out of the room, bundled her up and took her away. But after she spent a day in the ICU with some nice machinery to keep oxygen flowing, and a good strong dose of antibiotics I got to hold her for the first time.
