I don't think we had a primary nurse, but our primary neonatologist was Dr. Balhoff. I sent you an email with more comments.Julie Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02933092519276567320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118087224295106035.post-13720072416298094482007-08-07T20:32:00.000-04:002007-08-07T20:32:00.000-04:00Oh, our stories are so similar!

I went in to MFM for an ultrasound to make sure the babies weren't getting too big from my gestational diabetes (the irony!) and wound up being sent for an emergency c-section right then and there because Brayden's placenta had abnormal blood flow and he had stopped growing. I delivered at 32 weeks, 6 days. They sent one of the neonatologists (Dr. Dunbar--I'm sure you dealt with him) in to talk to me about what to expect in the NICU. I was crying hysterically the entire time because I was so scared it was too early. And it was in so many ways. The weighed 2lbs 14 oz (Brayden) and 3 lbs. 14 oz. (Baylee). Baylee did well and came home in 19 days. Brayden wound up being there 2 months because he had an undetected dual aortic arch and was aspirating and unable to breath on his own. However, as our primary nurse pointed out after they figured out what was wrong, if I'd gone full term, it is possible the dual aortic arch would have resulted in a still-born. Who knows? It has all worked out and I'm beyond thankful for that.<BR/><BR/>Who was your primary nurse?Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473178461700511405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4118087224295106035.post-26364866580018329582007-08-07T12:58:00.000-04:002007-08-07T12:58:00.000-04:00Happy birthday little ones!
