S is in NICU




S was born by C-section Friday 5/21. He weighed 8lbs and 3 Oz at just 36 weeks. His lungs were mature and had he not inhaled amniotic fluid he would be home right now. Instead he is in the NICU battling pneumonia. He has been on a breather. He has an i.v. in the side of his head. He has a feeding tube and he is also on a jaundice light. Pray for my little one he improves everyday...but not fast enough to calm a Mom's heart.

What a cutie! I'm sure he's in the greatest care at the hospital. Don't stress, let the nurses and doctors do their jobs. You try to rest (yeah right) :)

So far no rest yet. I am breastfeeding so most of my days are pumping and delivering milk plus I go up there to actually feed him twice a day....then there is the 18 month old that suddenly decided he no longer wanted to stay on a schedule...luckily for me my hubby lets me catch a nap everyday.
