PLEASE, THESE BABIES NEED YOUR PRAYERS!!

NATHAN DAVID-- This is my cousin's baby. Her water broke at 24 weeks. She managed to keep him cozy inside until 26.5 weeks (yesterday). He was born yesterday afternoon. He is thriving and we are so thrilled. He weighs 2.4 pounds and is already breathing on his own! She did receive steriod shots before she had him, but no one expected him to be doing this well!!

LANDEN MICHAEL-- This is my friend's baby. Landen was born at 38.5 weeks weighing in at 6lbs 13oz and 20 inches long on Tuesday. He was having a very hard time breathing and the doctors said he had fluid in his lungs. Well, he couldn't have been more wrong. Landen was rushed to a hospital with a NICU yesterday only to find out, there is no fluid in his lungs. He has pulmonary hypertension and now, pheunmonia. It's basically when the lungs still think there in the womb. It must be treated right away to avoid long term problems and since his wasn't caught for 24 hours, he developed pheunmonia. Landen is doing worse, and his fighting very hard.

ALYIAH FAITH-- This is my other friend's baby. She is 32 weeks pregnant and had a doctor's appointment yesterday. They found protein in her urine and she has a very high blood pressure. They expect her to go any day now.

BABY GIRL-- This is my mom's friends baby. She is 31 weeks today and her water broke last night.

I really don't understand why everyone that I know that is pregnant is having such difficult issues with their babies. I am really nervous for all of them. Please keep them in your prayers. I just hope Dawson stays healthy. It's God's plan though, not mine.
