November 30th 2009

November 30th 2009 changed my life forever....

I had been very emotional do to Kaden being in the hospital and not feeling well he past away on November 30th 2009, SO all afternoon I was home alone with Graycee and Ryker your daddy was at work. I remember taking Graycee and Ryker into our room and saying a prayer that Rusty and Jacquie will be able to get through the future, I just lost it I can't even imagine having to bury one of my children. It was like the flood gates opened up! Poor Graycee she kept saying mom dont cry please. Mom did you know that Kaden is in heaven so don't be sad. Well of course I couldn't stop and around 6 pm I called Mark and said you HAVE to come home I am having contractions and I can't stop crying my heart HURTS SOO BAD..... So he did and he took me into the Er and sure enough I was having contractions about every 3 to 4 mins I was ONLY 28 weeks. So they gave me all the drugs to stop this baby from coming. The good thing was I wasn't dilating YET.. So they got me all hooked up with IV's and gave me 3 shots of terbutaline, for some reason that did total oppisite and made my contractions 10 times worse. They finally got me into a room and got me going on Magnesium. I was doing fine then about an hour into getting it I started feeling SOO SICk! And sure enough I started puking and could NOT stop. Well later on I find out that is very common. LUCKY ME!

And to me Surprise around 11 pm that night I was not feeling very good and on some GOOD pain meds, in walks Rusty and Jacquie I was SHOCKED, to this day I am still AMAZED

Nothing really changed for a couple days my contractions weren't slowing down enough to send me home but they weren't making me dilate so that was GOOD news! Finally after a week and half of being in the hospital we finally got my contractions under control so I could go home to be on complete bed rest. Now how does that happen when you have 2 other kids at home. I was lucky to have A LOT of help from my family.

They sent me home on medication called Nifedipine to help keep the contractions down. I was on bed rest a weekly doc. apts with Doc, D every week. Stress tests and tests to see if I would go into labor with in the next week and LOTS of Ultra sounds to check his fluid. Well I made it to 37 weeks....

Labor story coming next!

room 619

Yes like the title says room 619, Weston is back in the hospital {room 619} hey at least he didn't spend his first birthday in the hospital.{ HIs Birthday was spent at the zoo with Family}

Cardon's Children Hospital is becoming are home away from home. I am grateful for the doc. and the staff here they are amazing,

We brought Weston in because he had a temp of a 102 and we could get it to go down we took him in to see his regular doc she asked us to go straight to the hospital she wanted blood work done on him ASAP to make sure there was no infection do to Surgery he had on the 17th.

We got to the hospital and it took them 5 time before they got an IV in, finally they got it in his foot. They did a bunch of labs and tested him for RSV and they also did a cat scan to see if there was any infection due to surgery. Everything came back looking GREAT EXCEPT he has RSV. Poor Weston has now had RSV 2 times.

Luckily the Doc came in this morning and said we can go HOME!! He wants us to get him out of the hospital he is afraid that with Weston having Lung problems not being able to fight infection he is worried he may get something eles on top of RSV do to being in the hospital.

So we are going home I am so EXCITED!! I want to stay away from here for a LONG LONG TIME!

Mark and I are grateful it is just RSV and not something Major, I thought for sure they were going to tell us his white blood count was out of control. But NOPE they looked GREAT!

But of course I always have to take pictures to pass the time so here are some fun pix I got this morning !!
