Noah Patrick born 4/11/14@ 35w6d due to severe Pre E. He is 7lbs 1oz 19 1/4 inches long and although he is still in the Hopkins NICU though he is turning things around and is no longer considered critical. Healing from my c-section has been hard since I am not resting a lot traveling between home and an hour away to the NICU but I am making it. Noah is a fighter and we are so proud of him.

Miss Alexandra Rose born on 3/31/14 at 12:48pm weighing 3 lbs 14 oz, 17 inches long at 34 weeks 2 days. I had severe preclamsia and had to have a c section. She was born breathing well on her own but is in the nicu for being small and needing to learn how to eat As of 4/21 we are still in the nicu but she is getting closer to eating better on her own. She needs to keep gaining weight and then we can finally go home-hopefully this week! What a journey!

MissLadyTay

Had a successful VBAC attempt yesterday and gave birth to a son! Little Baby Tay is 8 lbs. 6 oz. and 21 inches long. He has a ton of dark hair and has doubled the size of my heart.

My VBAC was the most incredible experience and afterwards I said to MH that I could do that five more times. SO much easier than my C/S. I'm sore today and had "several" second degree tears extending in various directions. Taking advantage of all the pills they will give me and staying on top of it.
