We nearly lost her, she ended up on a ventilator and seriously ill. However she was back with me on the ward after 6 days and was bfing then too. They were all sections too.
The thing to remember is every baby is diff and what some can do i.e suck. Some can't for ages.
Just take it a day at a time. Good luck for tomorrow hun  |
Thanks chick, think at the moment i am clinging onto whatever i can, and that is that he is big and has had steroids 4 weeks ago, cos if i don't i will be in pieces constantly.
We have been told he will be in scbu for at least 4-5 days on a heart monitor even if he can breathe himself and does not get jaundiced etc, he must be there for monitoring, so i am hoping so badly that his heart is fine and all else is well and he can come then come home, but i know realistically that it may not be the case, but if i don't stay positive then i will lose it, and i have to keep it together for my husband and 19 month old lil boy.
Thanks again for advice and support, will ask my text buddy to update here on wedsnesday after i have delivered as well as third tri xxx
