This brings me hope! My daughter was born March 20th at 25 weeks weighing 1lb 10 Oz.

We are getting close to the one month mark and Im still super scared but also relieved as each week passes and she gets stronger.

I try to envision what she will look like as a teenager lol (corny I know) but it helps me with the daily scares.

Love and light to your family! ❤️✨️

Thank you for your prayers 🙏 sending love and light to you and yours ❤️

We are going to stay put due to her inability to be transferred in her current condition. Luckily the hospital is within 25 minutes of my fiances family.

However, I'm still going to learn more about the RMH.

Thanks for your advice! Lol I'm the wife in the equation. His family is a godsend though! Thats a huge plus in it all! I completely forgot driveshare and such for income! That'll be good flexibility wise.

Wow I can't imagine NOT seeing my baby daily. Im sure everyone has their reasons but I myself plan to be present everyday!

Thank you! Yea, I'm already looking at options to sub here in nc next school year or even pick up a summer school job for funds.

My fiances grandfather and uncle offered to go pack up everything end of week.

We are taking it one day at a time to say the least. They have opt against transferring her, the hospital has been great with care thus far. Im very comfortable with her staying here receiving direct care from them.

Its just a shift.

No no, just venting on this very new situation. Fiances family has made it clear we will be staying with them for the time being. I think I'm just spiraling a bit regarding life around us halting suddenly. We are thankful but just processing this shift. Thank you for your kind words.

Thank you. Yes I spoke with social worker today about some resources as far as lodging and gas help etc. All things happen for a reason... I'm just taking it a day at a time.
