Yes my little girl is here. She was born March 7, 2006 at 10:17 am. And yes her due date wasn't until June 5--you do the math. Right now we are staying here in SLC at the Ronald McDonald house..since my little girl is at the NBICU unit at University of Utah hospital. She weighed 2 lbs 7 oz and was 15 inches long when she was born. Pretty much I went into labor very unexpectedly...one minute we're getting ready to eat dinner...the next we're being life flighted to Salt Lake. That was on Sunday...March 5th...I was on magnesium sulfate right up until my water broke at 8:45 am on the 7th...luckily we got 37 1/2 hours of the steriod shot that develops her lungs faster into her. Right now, she is doing very good. She is on a respirator right now because she had an incident with her on Saturday morning (around 2 am) and almost lost her. They are beginning to wein her off of that right now. She's not eating right now...they are most likely going to start her back on the feedings tomorrow. She's under phototherapy lights right now but that isn't uncommon...shes under that for jaundice. Her blood pressure is good and has been. We're expecting to be discharged from U of U around her due date...so we have a little bit before then. I doubt I'll be on here very often since we don't have good access to a computer...except at the hospital. I doubt I'll be able to put any pictures of her on here until we are able to go home. Anyway I'll see everyone in a while....
