25 weeks today!! 21 Days to the Doctors Goal!!!

WOOHOO!! 25 weeks!! Every week is a huge deal for the babies development!!

Today was day 21 in the hospital and I have 21 days to reach the goal!! I am still hoping to go further than the Doctors goal, but at 28 weeks the future looks very good for these pumpkins.

I have been having more contractions, but that is expected with carrying 4 babies. So I am up to 2 Terbutaline shots daily, but this is still the milder treatment. So let's hope I can hold off on heavier meds for a few more weeks.

Pastor Phil from my church came. He lifted me high in prayer which I am so Thankful for.

Please continue to pray, each day I carry these babies is a gift.

"Keep The Faith"

Madeline

Our sweet Madeline Jean, had 8 very good days in the NICU. By day 3 Maddie had moved to high flow nasal cannulas for breathing, she was taking feeds and as spunky as ever. On day 8 she became ill, her stomac became enlarged, she was critcal, on day 9 the Doctors took a look inside and found all of her intestines and half of her stomac had died. We had her baptised and held her, as soon as she was in my arms skin to skin with me, we removed her breathing assistance and let her go very quickly and peacefully. We would later find that the cause of her death was NEC (Necrotizing Entrocolitis). We feel blessed to have had her for 9 days.
