for anyone who has kept up with my story... I was 32 weeks along and for two days I tried to get doctors to give me an ultrasound since my uterus was growing 4cm a day and measuring 39 weeks along and Noone would give me one. I cried and begged and all I would get was a non stress test which said babyboy was fine. on Saturday Oct 10 around 10 pm I began gushing blood, in total it was 2 pints. my placenta had ruptured and was poisoning not only my baby but myself. at 1:03 am on Sunday the 11th my baby was born with no heartbeat and not breathing. the amazing doctors in the nursery did compressions on him for 13 minutes while I was still unconscious from my emergency c section and rushed him to a NICU about 40 minutes away. today he is 3 days old and is being held for the first time, his vitals look good but we have a long road ahead of us. the nicu is a scary place to be but I have fallen in love with his team and they have an amazing plan for him. I thank God every second I'm and wake for this little blessing and although this has already been such a trying experience both emotionally and physically my husband and I are finding strength in each other.
@levleah, thank you dear that means alot to me. I am trying to do my best not only for Gentry but also for my husband. the stronger I am the stronger he can be for Gentry and not have to worry about being strong for me.
@gentrysmomma, Erin, you, your husband and baby G have been on my mind and in my prayers. Although we're only friends via preggie, I am so touched by your story. The strength you have shown is incredibly admirable and speaks volumes about what an amazingly mother you already are. Best of luck to you and your family. ❤️
