OK- I thought I would start blogging so family and friends can stay updated, Our daughter was born on September 20 Th, 2006. I was 35 weeks along when I found out that the placenta was not providing nourishment to our little one. The doctor said from her measurements she was only weighing about 3 lbs 12 oz. From the tests they decided to start me on 36 weeks. I was on bed rest for one week before she came, praying that she would gain some more weight. I went in on Wednesday the 20Th, (nervous)!!!! They started me at 8 in the morning, and by 5:23 p.m. my baby Ailey Mckell Rae was born. She weighed 4 lbs even, and 17 inches long. She was gorgeous. After spending the night with us, Ailey went in to the Nicu the next morning. She couldn't' control her temperature while eating,and when working to keep her temperature up she would stop eating. She spent the first 10 days in the Nicu, ( the hardest days of my life)..I truly appreciate my heavenly fathers answered prayers, and comfort. She did better then doctors expected. They said Ailey is a fighter. After proving she could come home, we brought our 4 lb 4 oz tiny girl home with us. I was so nervous, no more nurses to help us out. She is now doing great! Weighing 7 lbs 7 oz. ( 2 months later). We want to thank family and friends for there love and support, we couldn't have made it through this without your love and prayers. Thanks Again.
