AW - It's my V-day!

This feels like a huge milestone.  I love this little baby so much and to know that now it has a fighting chance at life makes me happy.  Hoping for another wonderful 16 weeks! :-)

  • & It is my V-day today too!  Whoo!  I'm so glad we've reached this milestone!  I am now looking forward to the next milestone (the double digits)!  

    It feels good to be able to take a deep breath and relax a bit.  I also remember when my little sister was born on her 24th week (v-day) back in 1988.  She was so beautiful, but she only survived for 1 & 1/2 month before joining the rest of the special children. (Her brothers were born at 25 weeks and 3 days - 10 days apart from her. Only one of the triplets had survived - he's now a junior in college!)  I'll breathe a lot better when I pass my birth week (which is 29 weeks..) which is why watching "premature" birth and labors are tough for me, but it gives me courage to go forward.  

  • congrats, I am glad you have made it that far.  Although once you have seen a 24 week baby I guess it seems less exciting.  I will celebrate a happy next 16 weeks for you though.  Stay put little one....I do not want to see you for 16 weeks!

    Don't get me wrong I'd be terrified if I delivered now.  But the fear of miscarriage is eased a bit by hitting this milestone.  I definitely want to keep this little one cooking for as long as possible :-)

  • I know and I didn't think that.  I guess I am a bit sensitive this week (but really all weeks) since I was emailing with a woman on botb who had a baby at 24 weeks this weekend at the same hospital and the baby died.  It just is so heartbreaking and I would not wish that on anyone!
