My new niece was born yesterday under a very stressful situation. Her Mom had placental abrupto at 38 weeks. The baby had to be rushed to the Intensive Care Unit and put on life support. The baby is breathing very fast and is pretty traumatized by her hard birth. Please pray that she stays strong and breaths on her own today. Her Mom is doing good but both parents are worried sick about lil Reese.

~hugs~

Just heard from Denver

Baby Reese is still in Intensive Care but all her labs look good. The specialist said that her lungs are underdeveloped even though it was very close to her due date. They gave her a medication called surfactant and will keep her on the breathing tube for now to make sure she gets adequate respirations. They don't want to feed her yet for the fear of her aspirating and getting pnuemonia but they are giving her IV fluids. She has made it 24 hrs now and we are all so grateful for that.

Mom, Elise is doing well. She lost a lot of blood but didn't require a transfusion. She is getting IV fluids and iron supplements for now. She has already been to see the baby twice in a wheelchair this morning and is naturally beside herself with worry for her baby.

A member of the family is flying to Denver this evening to help give support there and to care for their one year old, Sydney. Sydney has been staying with a close friend while this drama has unfolded.

Thank you ML for Your prayers. ~hugs~ Lil Reese needs all she can get at this point. I haven't stopped praying since she was born yesterday.

We've have been making Christmas plans for weeks now. My family was so excited because this year we would have 2 little ones to spoil. I'm hoping we will all be together then as planned. Lil Reese will be the most spoiled baby in the world for sure.

Thank you all for the prayers and words of encouragement. ~hugs~ Baby Reese is hanging in there. The neonatologist did more lab work late yesterday evening and this worried Reese's Dad. The doctor never really said why. Hopefully, we'll learn more tomorrow.

I'm just grateful she is still with us. Like all of us, she only has to do one day at a time. She only has to take one breath at a time.

Please continue praying for her and her parents. I just know our prayers are fueling her life force. She has only been in the world almost 48 hours now but she is well loved. We just can't do without her in our lives now.
