MY SON WAS BORN ON AUGUST 13, 2000. HIS DUE DATE WAS NOVEMBER 13, 2000. HE WEIGHED 2LBS. 11OZ. AND WAS 15 1/2IN. LONG. HE WAS IN THE NICU FOR 47 DAYS. NOW HE HAS BEEN HOME FOR THREE MONTHS NOW AND HE WEIGHS 8LBS. 8OZ. AND IS 21 1/2IN. LONG. IT'S LIKE EVERY TIME HE SLEEPS I SIT AND WATCH AND BE AMAZED AT ALL THE THINGS HE OVERCAME LIKE BRADYS, APNEA, BLOOD TRASNFUSION, RESPIRATORS, AND NEEDLES AND JUST THANK GOD FOR MY LITTLE ANGEL AND KISS HIM ALL THE TIME BECAUSE IT'S A MIRACLE THAT HE'S HERE WITH NO COMPLICATIONS TODAY. SO IF YOU HAVE A PREEMIE AND THINGS LOOK BAD JUST REMEBER TO PRAY BECAUSE IT CHANGES THINGS.

Hi, my name is Bryce Jance Yandell and Iam almost a year old and weigh in at about 15 lbs. but this wasn't always so,on 12/20/99 of last year my mom gave birth to the most beautiful tiny 2lb almost 14in. baby, in her 29th week, me of course. And tho the last year has been rocky with reflux and me not wanting to eat and hernia surgery before leaving NICU. But all of it has made us stronger and better people. We just got off oxygen about a month and a half ago and we were so proud. Our road is still rocky but the curves arent as bad and with that in mind we thank god for all he has given us. ALOT!!!!

I am a reporter for the Arlington Morning News in Texas, part of the Dallas Morning News. Your site is very interesting -- my son was born 2 months premature in February and was in an NICU for three weeks. I did a story on his situation that you might find interesting at http://www.arlington.com/metro/arlington_news/202193_AMNPRESTON29.html A link to your web site ran with our story. Thought you'd like to know. Sincerely, Kevin J. Shay Arlington Morning News, Texas

My daughter was born on July 24th, 2000 at 3:08pm. Her due sate was October 16th,2000. She was 28 weeks early and spent 73 days in the NICU. She weighed 2 pounds 2.5 ounces and was 13.5 inches long. She now weighs 6 pounds 12 ounces and is 18.5 inches long. She had 2 strokes when I was pregnant and has tissue damage on the front left & right side of her brain, but we can't tell anything is wrong with the motor skills this far! She had stage 2 of ROP but that has resolved. We have her home now and she is hooked up on a Apnea & Bradycardia monitor and we also have oxygen just in case. The only time she has problems is when she eats. Sometimes she stops breathing and turns blue and passes out. We stimulate her and she comes to. It is scarey but I am thankful that she is home! She had Jaundice, naemonia, salmonilla, strep "B", and reflux. She is amazing and soo beautiful!

My first child was born 8/31/00. 13 weeks early weighing 1 pound 12 ounces and 12 1/2 inches long. His name is Travis James and he is doing really good. He is now 2 pounds 12 ounces(10/17/00). It has been very scary, but I have learned the true meaning of one day at a time, and I am thankful for each day.

My baby girl, Charlise Marie was born 9-14-00 at 32 weeks gestation. She was 2lbs 1oz at birth. Today she is 2lbs 15oz and gaining every day. She is a blessing from above! She has been in NICU for almost 4 weeks now. Keep her in your prayers, please.
