Success after IF

2IF successors from awhile back...

I was with all you for a while on the pregnant after infertility board. Then I just dropped off for a long time. I wanted to let you know I had my son, he was born February 17 at 31 weeks. I had PROM on February 13, so I rushed to my nearest major hospital. They informed me there was no room in any of the nicus in my province. So I was put on the airplane and sent to the next province over. He was born four days later after going into labor on my own on bed rest. He was born a tiny 3lbs 6oz & 16 inches long. We were in the NICU a total of 38 days before we were released home. We came home for a whole six hours and while I was feeding him he started shaking, stopped breathing and turned blue. We had to call emergency services and give him mouth to mouth. We were taken to the Children's Hospital where we stayed for another five days. They did not find anything majorly wrong they believe it was reflux that he choked on. He is now just over 2 months old & weighing 5lbs 13oz. He has had his RSV immunization but still caught RSV. Thankfully it has been minor. Otherwise feeding is going well & we are thrilled. His big sisters adore him!!

    I was thinking about you recently, wondering how you were doing with growing your family. I'm so happy to read about the addition of your son. I'm sorry it was such a rough road for you, but I'm glad you have him now. You deserve the best. I hope he continues to grow and thrive.
