Parenting after a Loss

My girls came early!

Allison and Jordan decided to surprise us 34w2d on July 28th!  Allison was 4lbs, 4oz and Jordan was 4-15.  They are in the NICU, but doing great so far and starting to gain back some weight.  They told us from the beginning to expect about a 2 week stay so I'm hoping to have them home by next weekend.  Here's a picture on their 1 week birthday:

  • Thanks so much!  I didn't mean to post and run earlier, but we had to go to BRU to get some stuff and get to the hospital for the afternoon feeding. Jordan actually breastfed for a few minutes and was also out of the isolette in a regular crib - huge day for her!
