| Please pray for my new niece My sister(Brittany) gave birth this morning at 5am, she had to be induced as she was over a week overdue. There are some major complications going on (with my new niece not my sister). The baby (Taylor) is rather large at 9.6oz and had a rough 36 hour labor, and a rough delivery. Upon coming out her shoulder was dislocated because she got stuck and the doctors had to really work to get her out. She came out blue and not breathing. She actually is still not breathing on her own at all and is on a ventilator. Taylor also has not moved on her own at all since being born, which is a major concern. They are hoping that she is simply exhausted from the hard birth. They are transferring her to a larger hospital about 40 mins away with more advanced technology and more advanced doctors. Unfortunately they won't release my sister for 24 hours and they will not transfer her to the same hospital as Taylor. Basically that is all I know right now. If you think of it please pray for my sister, my new niece and my parents- as well as all of the doctors involved. Everyone is really tired and emotionally drained. Thankfully my sister is doing fine herself medically. The concern is for Taylor. It is hard for me to be so far away from the situation as they are in Illinois and I am in Florida. Thanks! Jacklynn

| Thanks everyone - I'm sure you all guessed, but when I said she was 9.6oz I meant 9lbs 6oz Quote:
They thought for a brief period that her brain was swelling, but it isn't at this time at least. They are going to be doing some scans to make sure all of her brain waves are fine.

| Sorry I've been so busy. She was able to go home last night!! Which is such a huge difference from when she was born. They weren't even sure if she was going to make it the first few hours of her life. She was basically stillborn, and they revived her. She had no heartbeat and wasn't breathing. She will be going in for an EEG on Thursday to see if she has brain damage. She went 12 minutes before she breathed after being born. It is a miracle that she has went from the first picture to the second in just 5 days.

| What a beautiful little girl. The picture of health if you didn't know this poor baby has already been through so much. That's amazing she's now home already. You have to believe in miracles because they do exist. Praying she will be perfectly fine after all the testing. Look how far she has come already. That's a miracle in itself. Hugs, |
