:hug: I'm so sorry to hear your little baby has some health concerns.
My son was born with coarctation of the aorta, and a few other cardiac complications. I will see if I can locate his birth story and you can read it if you want to (keep in mind, his case was different in that he had other issues too - I don't want to traumatise you).
The surgeons repaired his coarc 3 days after he was born. They did tell me at the time that they will try and leave it until bubs is a bit bigger if they can - it all depends on how well they can tolerate nourishment and how it's affecting respiration.
:hug: again - I know it's hard to be where you're at right now, and I do understand.
ETA: here is the link to his birth story. And please pm me if you want to know any specific details.
Hey hunny just wanted to give you hugs and i hope things turn out ok,i know what you mean about the nicu and being apart and expressing ,thats what i did for 5 weeks....
you are a strong women and will get through this xxxxx
Oh, I am so sorry to be reading your post. Id on't know exactly what to say but I am preying for you and yours and praying that it is not as bad as you think and you will be able to experience all these things.
Also maybe its not that you have lessons to learn but that you have a hige amount to teach others.
You are amazing and strong and you can and will do it and we will all be with you xo
:comfort: awww hun... I'm sooo sorry you're going through this. I can only imagine how heart-wrenching this is.
I too feel sad to have missed out on all those newborn things (and yes, Liam's medical file is already bigger than mine!) - so I completely get where you're coming from there.
All the best and I hope it all goes smoothly for you all. :hug:
Daintree - as a new mum currently riding the NICU/SCN rollercoaster I am struggling to find the words... I am beside myself not knowing but to have an expectation that this is the roller coaster you will ride for a second time would do my head in. I hope that you find comfort in the fact that you have ridden before and there will not be so much unknown a second time around - yes circumstances are different but you will already know a lot of things and will have picked up those handy hints from your first ride.
:hug: you and your family are always in my thoughts

The amazing support that everyone offers is still so overwealming, thankyou all so much you have said some lovely words that makes me feel like I am not so alone.
I am feeling really quiet selfish but I don't want to do this again, I don't want to miss out again, it makes me feel like a horrible person when I know that my baby will be ok and that she will come home with me and that it is her that is going through the fighting not me.
I feel really bad for Matilda too, that she is going to be back in NICU watching her little sister fight the same fight, I don't want her to have to go through this and I am scared about how I am going to give enough to both my girls in such a situation, with Matilda I basically lived at the hospital, I had no-one to worry about but her, what am I going to do this time?
Today was meant to be a happy day, Matilda came home from hospital on this day last year, she has finally been safe at home for one whole year, we are meant to be celebrating that not worrying that this journey will be starting again 4 months.
It has hit me today and I am only now sheading my first tears.
I can do this. I will do this. I am going to be a stronger and better person for it.
Thankyou all so much.
MF it is nice to know that there is someone I can ask questions, thankyou for posting your story for me to read.
