So we begin our NICU journey....

[*Infinity*]

Last post I said I was going to light a candle to send Heidi strength. At about 8.45pm or so I had lit the candle and not 5 mins later we lost electricity - Heidi's light kept DH and I from being in darkness :-)

Sweetheart, you just made me cry. To think of her lighting up so many people's lives is just beautiful. Thank you x

Rosebud, she has been opening her eyes again today when DP has been with her, grasping his finger as if to say "I'm still here daddy" so we're so hopeful its a little message from her that we just need to be patient for a few more days.

That's so beautiful!
All the best for your appointment tomorrow and hope you are soon well again

Infinity, I have been stalking this thread for a while now, praying for your little one. I hope she goes from strength to strength and you have past the hardest days. Even though you are not physically by her side at the moment I am sure she knows that her mum and dad are thinking of her. The joy of seeing her on Tuesday will banish the last few days so quickly it will seem like you never left her side.

Wishing and praying for you

oh gosh infinity, reading that she is opening her eyes to see her daddy is just so precious xx

our thoughts and prayers are with you all and we are cheering Heidi on as she grows and goes from strength to strength - and i hope that your postnatal appt goes well and that you also get in some good recovery and are back to 110% in not time

to you Infinity. I hope the time races by until tomorrow morning, when you and DH go and visit little Heidi.

honey be gentle with yourself. There was nothing you could have done. Good to hear she is making progress. You'll be with her soon, so rest and take care of yourself in the meantime.

You did an amazing job hun, it is hard to accept that our bodies for one reason or another just couldn't make it to term, you kept her safe and grew her to a beautiful size in the 25 weeks 6 days you baked her for, and I know that she will be eternally grateful to you for that, you have given her life

Progress is good, and we do like the small steps, she is a real little fighter and she isn't going to let an infection get in her way.

I am glad that you are going in with your DH tomorrow, to hold each other up, I hope you have a lovely long visit and get to see those beautiful little eyes open and her tiny fingers grasp yours.
Take care and don't worry about anything more than the basics xxoo

Hope the 3 of you enjoy your visit tomorrow.

Strong Healthy vibes coming your way for all of you xxoo
