Can I talk to some other mommies that had babies in the NICU for any amount of time. I'm having such a hard time being away from her... 😥 even though it's only been a little over 24 hours and I'm still at the same hospital as her.
omg... I'm so depressed my child cries more than she doesnt..The only time she's not crying is when she's alsleep.. but she only sleeps 30 minutes each time. she won't sit in her carseat, her crib, pack n play , her swing, bouncer nothing!!! I have to hold ger 24/7 even when she's sleeping or else she will wake up. I'm tired I don't get any sleep nothing soothes her I don't even remember the last time I had enough time to bathe :'( I love her so much but this is so challenging
So I'm having a hard time naming my baby girl from her first name all the way to her last! I'm not married and I'm struggling on if I should give her my last name, her dad's name or do a hyphen..
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her own when she is ready to come ! As much as I am anxious to meet her and have her home with me, those last few weeks of brain development and lung maturation means so much more to me! I'm hoping and praying that things turn around, and I don't have to get induced. I'm surely going to talk to my doctor about it Thursday when I go back.
Dear Moms, Preggie mom @njf1216 sadly posted today that her daughter Reagan Brinkley was born early at 35 weeks sleeping, when doctors discovered that she no longer had a heartbeat. Let's send her our love and heartfelt wishes, and to the other moms who have also had angel babies. If you would like to, please write a message to her on this post or send her a private message. We are deeply saddened by her loss and are are keeping her in our hearts at this difficult time. Warmest wishes, Preggie_USA
She ate food for the first time. I'm crying but I'm so proud of Her! She's growing up to fast.

@lovelyniters, @lilbit123 @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom @twinmommy123 @shwayzelovee since I'm a type one diabetic she's having problems stabilizing her own blood sugar since she relied on my glucose supply for so long and all of a sudden doesn't have it. She has been in there two days and I'm already an emotional wreck I just want to prepare myself for the possibility of going home without her i cry every time i have to go back to my room (i get to stay until Friday so hopefully Friday we both get to come home) but I guess I need to prepare myself for the worst case scenario. Two days is really short compared to all the time some of your babies were in there but for me it seems like eternity 😥

My son was in NICU. He was born Feb 19th, 2015 and he didn't get discharged until the 25th. It hurt me to pieces for him to be in there, hooked up to tubes. I just look at it as he needed this help. I was there though the entire time because I was breastfeeding so they had a room for me to stay in all them days .
