I know a lot of members are either pregnant or had a baby, and i just so happened to be one of them! let me fill you in with everything that has happened to me!
Well as you all know I was in and out of the hospital since I was 6 months pregnant.. but was on complete bedrest when i was 7 1/2months for 2 weeks.. i was able to go home for 1 week.. but after that week, the perinatologist had confirmed my baby was still small for her gestational age and her heart was overworking and had something called tricuspid valve regurgitation (basically not all the blood is pumping where it's supposed to, and leaking back)..
So.. I was to be in the hospital on Bedrest until I delivered
which really made me sad!! ok anywho! it was the longest month in my life i must say.. but in the end, I finally gave birth to a baby girl Khristianna Rae on July 5th via c-section (which really hurt afterwards!).
She's 8 days old as of today, but still hasn't been able to come home. First day she was born, she was put on a ventilator and the 2nd day she was taken off of it, because they thought she was okay enough to breathe on her own, and some of the blood tests came back with good results..
But then everything went quickly downhill from there.. she couldn't breathe at all without the tube, so they put her back on it.. and it has just been a struggle for her this past week. She had bad case of jaundice so she also was under the phototherapy light for a whole week and we weren't able to see her face.. I'm happy to say that the doctors say she's out of her "critical" stage, but not out of the woods.. they just started to feed her today which i'm really happy about that.. and she's just the most precious thing in the world to me.
This is my first child, and im so happy that she's doing better and she's here finally!!
i don't have any pictures of her right now, because i haven't uploaded the pictures.. but i promise i'll post photo's once i get the strength to do so!
just thought i'd share
