R Baby Foundation

Hi All --

Happy Wednesday. 

My SIL sent me this link as she is doing the central park walk and is trying to get sponsors (she doesn't know I'm PG yet).  I started reading and found myself crying a little bit at my desk.  I'm so worried about getting through 1st Tri, now I read this and I've realized that this is just the start of my worrying.

I read the story of the foundation and perhaps I can help to put your mind at ease. When I was 18 my brother Danny was born, he was a very cute baby, unfortunately at 4 weeks Danny was diagnosed with respiratory syncytial virus infection, also known as RSV. My brother spent most of his first year in and out of the hospital, he had a common cold and would have to go to the hospital. I am happy to say Danny is now happy and heathy and 8 years old. While some children can die before mother's day it is important to think positive and remember there are many more things to worry about like a stresed out pregnant woman, so try not to worry about what you can't control and deal with what you can, like taking good care of yourself and taking your vitamins.
