After my last post we finally heard from Birth mom R. She had gotten kicked put of her moms house and was trying to find a place to stay. She called me early tuesday morning. About 2 hours later we got the phone call she was in labor. Baby was delivered at 5:23 pm on tuesday after a fast 5 hour labor. Baby has been transferred to the NICU at a larger hospital closer to our home as she tested positive on the urine drug screen for marijuana. We are waiting on the meconium screen to come back. R has signed the hospital paperwork to have the baby discharged to us. Tpr cant be signed until monday. But makenna is doing good so far.
Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever! Expecting again after IVF
Congrats! Glad she is doing well. Hope she can come home with you soon.
