afm-
thanks for posting for me Liz.
Just got out of the hospital yesterday. My darling little boy arrived on the
8th December via c-section, we had a section planned for the 10th but they ran
out of space on the surgery list, so they stuck me on the emergency list, if any
spots came up. He was 31 weeks and day. He
came out screaming (best sound I've ever heard). He was 1.84kg or 4lb 1oz.
He was an amazing 45cm long and head circumference 31cm.
was ventilated at first but then went onto CPAP oxygen in the Humidicrib. He is
now a week old and has just gone from strength to strength, he is now in a
normal cot, and just having oxygen through nasal prongs. So pleased with him.
We called him Matteo James Rusty!
Hope he progresses and is home with us soon, probably about another 5ish weeks stay ahead.

Thanks for all you Congrats, it means a lot to me.

Take care all,

[Heaven]

So happy for you BF, rest up when you can. I love the name you've chosen!

[Early Kids]

I truly hope the NICU/SCN journey is a nice smooth one taking forward steps only x
