Just wanted to say hello - and introduce myself...My son was born yesterday via c-section at 36w1d. He is currently in the NICU due to some trouble breathing.I've only seen him once, and am hoping to be allowed to go see him later today.
it's been quite a day - i got to go see ethan twice, and held him both times!
my husband has been running back and forth between my room and ethan's - and escorting our visitors 1 at a time in to see our lil pumpkin.
ethan's had a good day - the nurse said it was like a "lightbulb turned on today for him"... he has been sucking on a pacifier (successfully) while improving his breathing... they even moved him to an open bed - no more heat lamp! and this afternoon he got his first bath and even though i couldn't be there, my husband video recorded it for me to watch tonight.
Re: hi - we're new...
Hi Lizzie!
Congrats on your newest addition. I look forward to getting to know you and hearing how your little one is doing.
They arrived at 36 weeks after PTL and bedrest for 14 weeks.
thanks for all the hellos and well wishes...
