I am ...Becca, let me know if you get this message! I am not sure the best means to reply back to you. Are you on facebook? Wow, sounds like you had quite the journey with your boy too! And just recently! I had placenta previa and was on bedrest for 5 weeks in the hospital before he was born. He was born at 28 weeks, 2 pounds 9 ounces. Elden was in the NICU for two months...almost exactly. He had some minor problems but thankfully they all cleared up. He was under the bili-lite forever and had some brain bleeds. (Which cleared up.) After he got out he had physical therapy. He leaned his head to one side a lot for a while I remember. Elden crawled on time (for his adjusted age) but he didn't walk till he was about 18 months old (non-adjusted age). He was able to stop physical therapy close to his 2nd birthday. We never put him in speech therapy as he seemed to progress normally in that. Wow, you sure are busy! I hope all of the different therapy sessions are going well. I remember coming home from the hospital thinking, okay, we're done with doctors. HA. That was a joke. They wanted Elden to come in once a week for weight checks and then they gave him some shot during the winter months, and they wanted me to come in once a month for that. And of course we started physical therapy later on and that went for several months. It can be draining! But it was great though that he received such great care and was able to get the help he needed. Good luck with everything Becca!!! I would love to find you on facebook or something.

I don't know if you remember me, but...Hey Ruth! I don't know if you remember me, but we were in the Marshall branch together for a short time way back in the day! But, I found your blog through a link from Britt's blog. Anyway, I saw your birthday post on Elden and was intrigued by your birth story which looks like it was somewhat like mine with my son who was born at 31 weeks weighing 2 lbs, 8 oz. How early was Elden & how much did he weigh? How long did he have to be in the NICU for? Did you have pre-eclampsia? My little guy just turned 18 months & isn't walking yet, but does PT,(along with speech therapy & occupational therapy for that developmental stuff), so seeing your little guy doing so well at age 3 gives me so much hope! Happy Birthday to your little guy!<br />BeccaBeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12773824583961950500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15373219.post-73595334292984503272012-03-25T22:28:57.960-04:002012-03-25T22:28:57.960-04:00Has it been THREE YEARS???!!!

It's not like we play with fire crackers. I don't know what he thought they were going to do. :-)Nostreborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04040871720108752477noreply@blogger.com
