    Re: Utah

    I grew up in a little town called Tujunga. Its near the Glendale/Burbank area. I still miss it though especially since my brother lives there. So which one of your boys was a 26 weeker? How were you treated at the U?

    my oldest son Ricky was the 26 weeker, 1 lb 13.5 oz and 13.5 inches long. I was treated at St marks then rushed via ambulance to the U. thjey said if I would of been any farther out they would of life flighted me. I had severe preeclampsia. 180/120 when they found it and my kidneys were 30% working.. I was treated on a whole diffrent kinda meds before they said it was time 2 weeks later and I dealivered 3 days later 7/7/02. He spent 4 long months in the NICU up there, and they took great care of him.. They thought they were going to lose him every night, but thank God he made it and is very healthly now. I had a wonderful OB the second time and went to 34.5 weeks and was watched very carefully!

    where were your treated?

    Hi everyone,
    I live in Salt Lake also, and had my son at 32 weeks because of severe preeclampsia and HELLPS. I actually had him at Salt Lake regional, but if I ever had another child I definately would not go back there. He was in the NICU for 4 weeks, and came home on some oxygen, but quickly was able to go off of that.

    Re: Utah

    Elliott will be 18 months in a couple of days. He wasn't transfered because he was right at the age they could take him. They take 32 weeks and older. So he was right at about 32 weeks.

    Re: Utah

    It's really nice to see people on here from Utah. I had a baby 7 weeks ago up at the U. They life flighted me from Jordan Valley to the U and I had her 5 days later. She weighed 1 pound and was 11 inches long. She has done really well so far, she's just had a lot of infections. I'm hoping to get to hold her for the first time around Christmas. I wouldn't ever have another baby anywhere but at the U. I felt really safe up there.

    Hi! What a cutie you have. I went through your blog a little bit. Mine is "my lil angels". Everything is going pretty good right now. I am 22 weeks pregnant and things are going well. We found out the baby has a cleft lip/palate. It was really hard for me to deal with at 1st but its not seeming so bad now. I know the other obstacles we could face instead. I'm hoping to make it to 36 weeks this time.
    How are things going for you? hows your little girl?
    Take care!

    Mom to Kaden(7) Lucy(2) and Jaxon(2mos)

    Is anyone out there having problems with their older kids acting out for attention? We have been home from the PCMC NICU for almost 3 weeks and my older kids are driving me crazy... I don't know how to be a mom to 3 when I have a baby that requires more attention then a "normal" baby. Atleast what my normal is anyways....
