Damien was supposed to come home today but instead had a blood transfusion for low hematocrit/red blood cell levels. Jace has been home with me since last Wednesday, but his levels last week were borderline and will be checked tomorrow. The doctor told me to expect him to have an outpatient transfusion this week. I have an antibody from a blood transfusion that passed through to them and is now attacking their red blood cells. The doctor said they could need multiple transfusions. Also that I should be prepared for these to be my last babies as the antibody gets stronger in subsequent pregnancies. I feel terribly guilty for harming my babies and devastated that I may never have more children.
