OPEN CRIB!!!
|
 |

Aug 16, 2006 09:22pm (EST)
Hey everyone!! How was everyones day??? O'Shea is now in a open crib, I am pryaing that he holds his temp while he is in there. You should see his eyes just moving around like he knows he is in a different bed. His final and last step is eating adlib (I think I seplled it wrong) but its when he eats how ever much he wants to when he wants to. So maybe this weekend, but I'm not rushing being that he has had those problems with his stomach. Well let me go to sleep I am so tired, but I figured I would update everyone real quick about his progress.

Hello all, I hoep everyone had a good day today. Well O'Shea is taking all his feeds by bottle and then tonight he finally reached 4lbs. He weighs 4lbs 1.6 oz. I'm so proud of my little man. They might have to give him a glycerion chip so he can go to the bathroom if he doesnt go tonight. I am still praying that this new formula works for him.

Today I felt so tired and drained, but I did find out that O'Shea could start eating today. They said they was going to start feeding him at 1230 and it was already going on 12 so I had to hurry up and take my shower and get up to the hospital. My poor pumpkin was so hungry after we finished he still wanted more because they didn't start his feedings were he was at last before he got sick. he is eating 15cc every other feed, but the nurse said she thinks he is ready for a bottle on every feed. they are trying a new formula called neocate, it is suppose to be very expensive, but he might now go home with that type. As of tonight he weighs 3lbs 15.2oz he is gainnig what he lost. His cultures on his stool and his blood all came back negative, so hoepfully this new formula will be good for his stomach. Everybody have a good night.

NOT A GOOD DAY FOR ME.
|

Well I woke up early this morning, because my shower is tomorrow and I was excited. So I went to go see O'Shea and when I was about to leave i noticed (and smelled) that he had went to the bathroom, so I changed him, but noticed he had a little blood in his stool. So here comes the rollercoaster and its waiting to go down the hill. So the doctor says they are going to stop his feeding and give him fluids and some antibiotics. They also did x-rays of his stomach and blood cultures. So far the x-rays are ok, not completely normal, ut they are ok nothing drastic. Then he brought up the thing about NEC, and I tried to hold in my tears, and told my self that O'Shea does not have that and will not get it. It doesn't show any sign of it, but they ar ebeing cautious. NEC is deadly and I refuse to even think about my son having it. All i can do is pray that everything continues to go good and his x-rays and blood cultures continue to be good. He is weighing 3lbs 15.2 oz so hopefully, if he hasn't lost any weight from not eating, he will be 4lbs tomorrow. Please continue to pray him and hopefully he will be home soon. I just feel like when we get a step ahead we always get pulled back 3 steps.

LAST NIGHT
|
 |

Aug 11, 2006 08:50am (EST)
Last night was a good night. O'Shea weighs 3lbs 14.6oz. I thought maybe he would have hit 4lbs, butI guess that was wishful thinking, I'm trying to be patient but I just want him to come home so bad. He is still eating a little over a ounce as of last night he was eating 35cc. He is growing to be such a little man. They told me if he doesn't have a spell for 10 day then he will more than likely come home without a monitor (those things are loud). Everyone keeps telling me that he will be home in a week or 2 , i am pryaing that he does, butI also don' want to get my hopes up. I am about to go get ready to see my little man, I hope everyone has a good day. And for anyone who has lost a child like I did last year, I am praying for you, we never really get rid of the hurt and pain, but you will regain your strength.

MY BABY BOY!!!
|
 |

Aug 09, 2006 10:14pm (EST)
Tonight O'Shea weighs 3lbs 13.6 oz. I am so proud of him. The next step is for him to go to a open crib and hold his temp. I'm so excited. Going back and forth to the hospital and then trying to do little things in between, like go pay bills, just drains your body. I hope I can be energetic at my babyshower this weekend

O'Shea caught a little infection on this past Saturday, so they stopped his feeding and gave him fluids and antibiotics, well today he finally got to eat and he was so happy, he sucked that bottle down so fast. They are giving him a bottle on every other feeding, and as of tonight he weighs 3lbs 10.6 oz. I'm so proud of him and I can't wait for him to come home. It was a very good day and night for the both of us.

MY FIRST BLOG
|
 |

Aug 07, 2006 10:54pm (EST)
Hello, my name is Jacquetta Montgomery. I call my blog "My second chance", because I feel like I have been given a second chance with having my second baby. I was 22 when I lost my first child. I ws so excited. I did everything I was suppose to do and got plenty of sleep. I went to my checkups like I was suppose to and listened to the dr. On June 27,2005 I took a trip up north, that night I felt wet and didn't understand what was going on, it was like a gush of fluid, but by this being my first child I didn't know it was my water. I went to the emergency room and thats when I was told that I was not going ot be able to keep my baby. I was 19 weeks pregnant and couldn't beleive that I was about to say good bye to my first son. I cried and cried (I'm crying now while typing this,even though its been a year). All I could think of is "Lord what did I do wrong" "why me" "why take my son from me". On June 28th 2005 at 6:00 am I had a baby boy. They cleaned him up and let me see him and tell him good bye. i still remember it as though it was yesterday. When I came back home, I felt like I came home empty handed. I was in so much pain and nobody could help me.
January 8th 2006
I realized that my period did come on, so of course i took a pregnancy test, and to my suprise it came up positve. i didn't beleive it so I took another and it was positive, then i went to the dr and that test came up positive. I was sooo happy, but also concerned I didn't want the same thing to happen all over again. I couldn't go through that pain again. My friend recommened a great dr who told me that i had a incompintent cervix. Thank god he caught it early, before my cervix thinned out too much. I started go to the Dr every 2 weeks then i was put in the hospital to get a cerclage put in to hold my cervix together. then I started going to the Dr every week. On May 30th my dr did a ultrasound and realized that my cervix had almost completely thinned out, so to the hospital i went. I stayed in the hospital until june 25th 2006, thats when my son was born at 27weeks at 704am weighing 2lbs 1 oz. I was so scared for him, he was so small and fragile, but he came out fighting so my mom said not to worry he is a fighter. I left the hospital on june 28th 2006 the 1 year anniversary of my 1st son's death. So I was torn up in pieces, 1 because I was leaving my baby for other people to take care of and I couldn't bring him home, 2 because that date brought back the tears and the heartache of losing Micheal(my first son).
August 8th 2006
Today my son weighing 3lbs 9oz's and is doing fine. of course he has gotten an infection, like all preemies. But he has faught them and continues to. he is breathing on his on with no help. He is bottle feeding and emproving everyday. I am happy to see his face and hold him and kiss him everyday. he is my life and i feel whole again. O'Shea can't replace Micheal, but he has helped the pain and the emptyness I had been feeling for this past year.
until tomorrow............
