Nevins Mommy!

Hi my son was born at MVH October 8 2006 and stayed until October 30, 2006 He was born at 32 weeks and was actually very healthy for his age! He basically just had to grow! We felt that the NICU/ Special care unit was our home for the 22 days! We LOVED all the nurses doctors and other parents we met! Thanks!

Elaria's story

Hi, my name is Reba, and our baby, Elaria was born on 04/28/98 at Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton. 2 1/2 months early, our Preemie weighed in at 1 pound, 5 ounces. I was diagnosed with Toxemia / Preeclampsia which in effect forced Elaria to come early. I know it was 9 years ago, but when I started reading some stories, it brought it all back. But just to let you know, she is fine and healthy with no problems except she seems to think the world revolves around her...

MVH

My son was in MVH for 2 weeks from 08-29-06 to 09-10-06 until he was moved to Children's Dayton for NEC. We were at Dayton Children's and Cincinnati Children's. We were everywhere. Our home though was Dayton. That is where we became family. I wasn't too impressed with Cincinnati but, that is my own opinion others have different ones. Dayton made the last days of his life the best they could be and indulged us to no end on helping to make memories for JT. Love ya all up there. Lisa, Retta, Lula, Colleen, Vicky, Kerri, Lisa J, Gena, all of you. I miss you all so much. Thanks for taking such good care of my baby. And loving him as your own.

Welcome!

Welcome! We have been post-NICU now for three years, which is really hard to believe! Today, we're expecting our second any day. How long was your son at the Valley?

MVH NICU Grad and Current NICU resident

Hello there! My first son was in the MVH NICU in 2005 for 71 days. He was born at 26 weeks and weighed in at 2lbs. My second son is a current resident of the MVH NICU born at 33 +5 on March 5th. MVH NICU feels like a second home to us and many of the nurses are the same as when my first son was born even though the NICU is completely new. Welcome everyone from the Dayton area to the Share site.

Mom to Michaila and angel Alexandria (30 weekers) and Nadia (37 weeker)  

Hi Everyone!

I notice it's been a long time since anyone posted here in Ohio. My name is Kristie and I am a mom to twins born at 30 weeks. Michaila spent 60 days in the NICU at Akron Children's Hospital. We lost Alexandria to NEC when she was 18 days old. That was more than 7 years ago and today I am the March of Dimes NICU Family Support Specialist at Akron Children's.

I just wanted to remind everybody that it is March for Babies season and let you know that if you had a baby in Akron Children's we are creating a team of NICU Grads for the Akron walk. We would love to have you join the Akron Children's Grad Club at http://www.marchforbabies.org/team/t1839917.

I'd also love to hear from anyone else out there from Ohio! Have a great day!

Kristie
