My 32 weeker is here bittersweet

At 11:53pm on 9/22/12, 7 minutes shy of sharing a birthday with his mommy, Bradley Michael was born at 32w3d. I had hemorrhaged severely yesterday morning and was allowed to labor. He weighed 4lb5oz and was 17.75in. He has a very healthy cry and is currently breathing on his own in the NICU. We have plans to get him some pumped colostrum this afternoon if he continues to be a rock star.

I probably won't post too much until early December, since I think it'll be hard to see you guys still pregnant. But after that, you bet I'll be back! H and H rest of your pregnancies.

  • It sounds like a very scary day for you.  I'm glad he's doing well and hopefully won't have a very long stay in the NICU.  I hope you do stick around with us, as we'd like to hear updates on Bradley, but understand it may be difficult for you.

  • Congrats to you and your family. I am sorry that you experienced per term and that all didn't go as planned, but I am happy that your little Bradley is a fighter, good size and doing well in NICU. Hoping his stay there is very short and you are all home together really soon! 

     Happy birthday to you too!

  • Congratulations!  I'm sure the next few weeks will be quite stressful, but if he's already breathing on his own, then he really is a rockstar!  (Albeit, quite the impatient little one!)  I hope that your NICU stay is short and boring, and that you'll both be home soon.

    I can completely understand wanting to take a break from TB, but I hope that you will keep us updated from time to time, even if it's through a friend you've made here.  I know we'll all be thinking of you and sweet little Bradley!

  • Congratulations!  What an amazing early Birthday present!  Sounds like he is doing amazing and is so strong!

  • Congrats! Glad to hear you and. Baby are doing well. I also had my baby at 32weeks 10 days before you. I unexpectedly went into preterm labor and my water broke. After two days on hospital bed rest to keep her inside me longer, I gave birth to her naturally. It was stressful, but all is well too. She came out crying immediately. Nurses gave me a breast pump immediately and I started pumping every 3 hours. It's great you're pumping too. My milk came in 2 days later. I give my breast milk to the nurses to feed her. Thing are going well and she doesn't have health problems. I hope our babies come home soon! 

    II kind of miss being pregnant too, especially when I see other pregnant women out & about. I feel like something is missing...well obviously since baby is out already. I had such an easy pregnancy. It's a shame my belly never got to reach it's full potential. I often wonder how big I would have gotten these last 2 months of pregnancy. When I visit my baby girl in the NICU everyday, seeing her adorable face is the best feeling. I forget all my bad thoughts and thank God that she's here! Motherhood is amazing! Good luck to you! I hope Bradley's stay in the NICU is short & sweet! 

  • congrats on the little peanut - he'll be out of the NICU soon!
