Popular Post MedicMom Posted April 30, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 30, 2015 My water broke suddenly and unexpectedly on Sunday. We held off till Tuesday but I went into labor around 6 am and he was delivered at 8:40. Things inside were much more damaged than we had even realized, plus he had two very large and tight knots in the cords. There was no infection or current placental bleed found so they don't know why my water broke....just another freak thing in this pregnancy. Caden is doing well. His bilirubin count is high today but overall he is big for gestational age and his lungs are good. There is a long road to go though and probably will be lots of ups and downs. We expect him to remain in the NICU through July. I am having a rough time physically due to the extent of the surgery. The earliest I will go home is Saturday and I will remain mostly bed bound for a week or so. Thank you for your continued prayers. 70 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I hope you get the rest you need. Surgery sucks, especially when coupled with emotional trauma and strain of prematurity with the baby. I can't imagine how stressed you must be :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reefgazer Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Glad to hear the baby is doing well and I'm continuing to send good thoughts for a quick recovery your way. My cousin just gave birth to a 24-weeker a month ago, and her DS has to stay in the hospital into summer as well. Scary stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seasider Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 And remember your hormones are in flux. Don't be hard on yourself if you get weepy or whatever. Sleep when you can, laugh when it doesn't hurt to do so. Next year when you are chasing a toddler this down time will be like a blip on the radar. Praying still. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoughCollie Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 :grouphug: :grouphug: :grouphug: Congratulations on Caden's birth! I bet he is a really cutie pie. I hope you heal quickly and that Caden's stay in the NICU is uneventful. FWIW, my triplets were born at 27 weeks, and they are now 21 years old and doing just fine.
