Hey Audrey
MotherHubbard8 says:
Hey Jenna
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I didnt expect to see you online
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
so soon
MotherHubbard8 says:
I can't sleep
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
wow
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I cant say as I would be able to either
MotherHubbard8 says:
I am having a hard time typing though
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I can imagine
MotherHubbard8 says:
Rick is sleeping on the couch, he's exhausted
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
tell him his patient is stable
MotherHubbard8 says:
good, he will be relived,
MotherHubbard8 says:
I feel like my world is spinning out of control
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I can imagine i heard the baby was small but his lungs are developed, Naomi called and updated me
MotherHubbard8 says:
he's doing good, considering
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
thats good to hear
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
what did you name him?
MotherHubbard8 says:
he does need help breathing right now though
MotherHubbard8 says:
I haven't picked out a name yet
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
he will get stronger
MotherHubbard8 says:
I know
MotherHubbard8 says:
he's so tiny
MotherHubbard8 says:
only 4lbs
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
just over two pounds
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
wow hes bigger than I imagined
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
thats good though
MotherHubbard8 says:
yeah, if he had not come early, I probably would have needed a c section
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
because at five pounds thats kind of the safe point
MotherHubbard8 says:
he only has to get up to 6lbs to leave the hospital
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I thought it was five
MotherHubbard8 says:
they told me 6 today
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
ok
MotherHubbard8 says:
but so much depends how how he does otherwise as well
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I know
MotherHubbard8 says:
he can't swallow or suck and he has to do that to get to go home
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
but look how well Nat's babies are doing and they were just over a pound when they were born
MotherHubbard8 says:
I know, not even a pound
MotherHubbard8 says:
and Wayne is stable today, even beginning to wake up
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
its truly a miracle they all survived
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
thats good to hear
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I've been worrying about him as well
MotherHubbard8 says:
they are doing testing on the baby tomorrow, he might need surgery on his heart
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I will be praying
MotherHubbard8 says:
I haven't been able to get out of bed, so I haven't been to see either of them
MotherHubbard8 says:
I haven't even seen my own baby
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I'm sure as soon as you are strong enough they will let you see him
MotherHubbard8 says:
yeah
MotherHubbard8 says:
he was struggling so much after he was born, they took him straight to the NICU
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
this takes me back to Corrina in a strange way
MotherHubbard8 says:
Daniel was more premature than this
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
yeah you told me that
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
and look how well hes doing, he has SB, but he is defying odds already
MotherHubbard8 says:
yes, he is
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
he really doesnt let anything slow him down does he?
MotherHubbard8 says:
he gives me a run for my money on this walker
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
me too
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
MotherHubbard8 says:
I'm sure
MotherHubbard8 says:
are you watching the kids?
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
of course I cant run LOL, so I chase him with the chair and he thinks its a game
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
yes
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
its the least I can do after everything youve done for me
MotherHubbard8 says:
I've been so out of it most of today, I haven't even thought about the kids
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
its okay
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
they are all doing great
MotherHubbard8 says:
do they know?
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
Adam and Daniel are having a blast
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
yes
MotherHubbard8 says:
I'm sure Daniel loves having another boy to play with
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
yeah as does Adam
MotherHubbard8 says:
poor Daniel was the only boy for so long
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I know
MotherHubbard8 says:
I'm worried about him and Emily being too rough w. the baby
MotherHubbard8 says:
I feel so bad, we hadn't even picked out a name yet
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
its okay
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I think they will both be fine with the baby
MotherHubbard8 says:
honestly, we had not even started to talk about names
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I know and Im sorry
MotherHubbard8 says:
I'm normally so prepared for everything
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I know
MotherHubbard8 says:
but this has just blind sided me
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I know its not the same but I went through alot of the same emotions when Corrina died
MotherHubbard8 says:
I know you had to have
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
and tomorrow is going to be hard she would have started preschool tomorrow, which is why Im glad I have the kids to take care of, it keeps me busy, keeps my mind off my grief
MotherHubbard8 says:
in the short time I found out he was going to come early, I went through basically the same thing. the drs kept telling us he probably wouldn't make it
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I think hes going to make it
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I really do
MotherHubbard8 says:
the drs were really scaring me, to tell you the truth
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
its going to get better
MotherHubbard8 says:
even when I do get to see my baby, I can't touch him. his nervous system is not developed fully, and being touched is painful
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
its going to get through this
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
you
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
sorry
MotherHubbard8 says:
I know, my brood is enough to wear a person down
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
actaully they are asleep
MotherHubbard8 says:
but I'm sure it's been a long day for you too
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
but its after midnight, Tuesday, and Corrina would have started preschool today
MotherHubbard8 says:
I'm sorry, Jenna
MotherHubbard8 says:
but you get to take Daniel to pre school
MotherHubbard8 says:
I hear you volunteered
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
yeah
MotherHubbard8 says:
are you sure it isn't too much?
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
no
MotherHubbard8 says:
ok
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
its good for me though
MotherHubbard8 says:
I don't want you to do anything that will be too much for you
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
No im not
MotherHubbard8 says:
ok
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
I will brb Naomi I have to take my meds
Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:

Jenna Anderson (Life is a Gift Cherish It) says:
