Ayden’s Prayer
Through this entire ordeal I’ve kinda come up with a tiny prayer… I first said it in a dream I had one night… so really it was my dream self that recited it and I’m just repeating it. I hope that it becomes famous and I’m sure it works in other instances for other people too.
Comments
We welcome anyone’s comments to the blog as after this ordeal is through and Ayden is home, we will be burning this web blog to a DVD as a gift to Ayden (kinda like an online baby book/diary). Thanks all for your thoughts!
Mysteries Revealed!!!
…deep breath. Not to worry things are good.. there’s just a lot of info to get out and I wanna make sure that I get it correct. Lets start at the beginning of things. At 1am in the morning on the 13th of Nov Lindsay was yanked out of sleep by sharp pains and her body told her it’s time to give birth. That morning Ayden arrived in our world. What we just learned is that the reason this happened is because the placenta had an infection (chorioamnionitis) within it. So the body said hey… this is bad, it’s makin mom sick and makin’ baby sick. So out came Ayden. Now as a result the infection passed on to little Ayden. So not only did he have to deal with being born premature and having to survive with organs and parts that were not...
Nov 19th Updates
I like days when we only get a little news… seems like every single time it comes to finding out how he’s doing my tummy flips because what if there’s bad news today. uuugh… So what did we learn today… 1. His electrolites are low… I guess his sodium specifically is lower than it’s been so they’re gonna monitor that… 2. They would like it if he would urinate a little more… they wanna make sure the kidneys are still operating fine. 3. They fed him at 4pm and were going to try again at 8pm tonight. We’ll find out tomorrow if his food stayed down. So tomorrow we meet with the Dr and I must admit – we’re sooooooo nervous. uuugh I’m sure it’ll be fine after but my tummy is doing...
7 Days Blessed With A Son
Hiya gang, So it’s been 7 days now that the little guy has been with us. Can you believe it… 7 days… it was just back on Nov 6th that Lindsay went into the hospital.. Then on that fateful night/morning… she gave birth to a 790g boy. Well today he’s lost a little weight, coming in at 660g. He is still breathing on his own, his heart came back strong and well, so that test is a victory. The 2nd ultrasound of his head did show that the bleeding hasn’t gotten worse but is still fairly severe. Now we did have time to talk to the Dr and there are procedures in place that they didn’t tell us about before… so shame on you Dr Zikar. I’ll get into those procedures more after we talk with Dr Fusch on Thursday. Other...
