Molly Elizabeth 3lb 4oz

All are in NICU and doing well on high flow O2. There were two neonatologists and both are just so sweet and caring, I know my babes are in good hands

Both babies are doing incredibly well, breathing on their own from birth and only required feeding tubes. They are now in the same open crib in the special care nursery. Hopefully babies will be home by Christmas

Imani Lynne was born on 11/27 at 1:21 am via C Section at 34w2d after going into labor on 11/21. We're doing very well despite being early . Her lungs are strong, been on room air since birth. Going home as soon as she gets the hang of eating on her own♡

Leena Elizabeth was born 12/1 at 4:15pm at weighing 3 lbs 13 oz at 33 weeks 5 days gestational age.

She came out pink and open-eyed. She had to be intubated for a overnight but they removed her tubes this morning. She still has a cannula to her nostrils but they are reducing the air flow slowly every 8 hours. She also has a feeding tube for glucose water and breast milk/ formula.

She will come home when she can breathe without any assistance, can suck from the breast or a bottle and has gained weight. Can be anywhere from 2 weeks to a month. Thanks for all your positive thoughts and prayers.

June Elizabeth and James Benjamin were born at 4:21 and 4:41 today. They were 34 weeks exactly. They were a vaginal birth after a 5 week hospital stay. June was 3 lb 15 oz and James was 4 lb 13 oz! Both babies are doing great! I am not allowed to visit them yet, but my husband has been told they shouldn't need more than 2 days in the NICU. Good luck to everyone! For all those moms who are nervous about vaginal birth, don't be! You can do it!

ChelseyBels

Our little lady was born at 34 weeks and 4 days, via c-section, on December 1st at 3:45 pm. She was 5 pounds and 14 ounces.

I woke up on the first with a lot of cramping and contractions. They increased thoughout the day, so my doctors decided to just take her out (even though she was early) because it's not safe for me to labor. She came out crying, but then needed some breathing help. She needed help inflating her lungs for a couple of days, but now she's breathing on her own. Next up: getting her off the feeding tube and getting her to eat on her own.

She'll be coming home in 2 - 3 weeks. All depending on how fast she progresses.

We are in love.

12/4 Jack Rowan, 33w1d, emergency c section. 3lbs15 oz, 18 inches long. He is awesome. Nicu, but coming along nicely.

arac2007

Penelope Julie Monika arrived just after 12pm on 7 December via caesarean. She's 6 pounds and 18 inches, a good size for only 35 weeks. She is in NICU due to being a bit early but breathing without assistance. She hasn't quite worked out how to suck yet so will need a feeding tube for a few days but otherwise she is doing really well. The doctors say she can leave NICU once she figures out how to eat.
I was admitted to hospital one week ago with pre eclampsia. Symptoms got much worse over the weekend so the doctors decided to deliver early. We're both doing well now.

teachmegs817

Griffin Michael arrived today at 2:17 pm. After being admitted Sunday evening, (water broke) he finally decided to come today. He was originally due 1/24. Weighs 5lb 1oz. I got to hold him for a few minutes, and then he was swept off to NICU. Not to sure how long he will be in there. Crossing our fingers we may be able to have him home for Christmas. I'm feeling good and hoping the recovery process goes smooth.

I woke up at 4:00 am to use the bathroom and realized I was in labor. I was 9cm and fully effaced when we arrived at the hospital. 20 minutes and 3 pushes after we got to there Colin was born! I suppose he was very excited to meet us!

Abby Rose was born December 26th at 1:40pm, at 7 lbs 1 oz and 20 inches! My water broke at 11:45ish on Christmas and we went straight to the hospital where I was induced. The contractions were terrible, the epidural was terrible, and the actual pushing was terrible (despite being on 45 minutes)...BUT the end result is the greatest thing that ever happened to me and I am so in love with my new daughter!

born 12-27-15
38 weeks 6 days
8lbs 2 ozs
20.5 inches
Water broke but I wasn't in active labor when I got to the hospital so they started me on pitocin. They started me off super slow since I preferred an unmedicated birth. Well I guess that's all I needed because only 3 hrs of active labor and he was here. I broke down at 8 and asked for an epideral showed up at 9 and I was dilated to 10 so that plan went out the window! Lol Thank goodness my doctor was already here because I only pushed for 10 minutes and my perfect little boy was out! Some how I didn't tear either!
So that went pretty good being drug free and all but then my Placenta would not detach. Long story short I had to have a Procedure done to get it out. I was knocked out and lost a lot of blood. I finally got to nurse my baby at midnight and he did great! Do to my massive blood loss I have been on bedrest all day but probably a good thing since I passed out twice this morning when peeing. But baby is perfect and I'm doing a lot better.

Alexander Joseph
12-28-2015
10 lbs 10 oz
21 inches long

Alex was born via planned c-section at 7:44 this morning. There were no complications and we are both resting comfortably. We will likely go home in a few days. He is currently sleeping off his last nursing feast and if he continues to eat as well as he has been I will be skin and bones in a week. I've apparently birthed a piglet!

Alexis jade born 12/27 at 9:59pm weighing 7 lbs and 19.5 inches long so in love

Davis435

Went into labor at 2am on Christmas Day. Was able to spend most of the day home with family (uncomfortable, but at least well distracted from labor pains). Went in at 6pm, was ready to push around 11, but had to wait for the OB to arrive, so little Elijah Jesimiel Davis was born 12/26 at 12:30am. 7lbs, 6.8oz and 20 inches long. Mom and baby are healthy and finally home!

Moore2love2014

Koen Harper was born on Christmas Day at 1:47 pm. Weighing in at 6lbs 10oz, and 21 inches long.
My water broke at 5am on Christmas Eve. I had to get pitocen due to not dilating. Real labor started around 2pm. I got my epidural at 24 hours of labor at 7am on Christmas Day. I am so in love with him. He has had struggles with his blood sugar. And is now having to stay another day in the hospital(we have been here for 4) due to jaundice.

Welcome Callum Alexander dec 29 6:44 pm
6lbs 14 ounces.
20 hours of unmediated labor and then an emergency c-section because his head got stuck and he didn't like it too much. What a crazy experience. 10 hours of labor at home before being admitted at 5cm. Really wish I had an epidural it would have saved me so much pain in the end. The longest part (it felt like) was waiting for the anesthetist who had actually just gone home and had to turn around and come back. I was 39 + 3. Callum was born on my little brothers birthday
