Eicca is failure to thrive. It sucks. We were hoping he’d never fall this far behind in his growth, but it’s happened.
Today at the dr we got him weighed and measured and he is just about a pound away from being ’safe’ but still it’s sad.
They want us to keep up the new medicine and [...]

anonymity is lost in the world of internetting…

Hi again, I realized that any sense of being anonymous on the net is truly futile. Simply typing in our baby’s name leads EVERYONE to this blog, and also to our past struggles to get and stay pregnant. I suppose that isn’t such a bad thing, although we will never go into details about our [...]

Reading an infertile’s blog and having her complain her daughter, gorgeous newborn wasn’t latching on.. and thinking to myself.. what a selfish bitch. I mean here she is with this gorgeous baby, which I will never have and she’s bitching about feeding.. oh my apologies go out to her.
My precious son still isn’t succeeding in [...]
worst week for eicca ever!!
Posted in Apt updates on May 2, 2008 | 1 Comment »
This has beena week from hell for Eicca. Today hours of crying and non-eating. The liquid zantac he has been on for 8 days for reflux seems to do more harm than good, and he flat out refused food today. It’s fucking heartbreaking. My morning spent on the floor next to him crying isn’t how [...]

Current mood: impatient
Well today was en exiting day. The doctor check everything out and feels that our baby will not grow much more from now on (the last two weeks) due to low amniotic fluid, increasing blood pressure and thus indications for a less good functioning placenta at this stage. A C-section it is!
Schedueled [...]

Hello readers. Here is the husband.
So we are trotting 37-38 weeks along and we just found out the the amount of amniotic fluid is critically low. My wife is now in the Hospital for observation with a follow-up ultra sound tomorrow. Then they will check the blood flows in our baby.
I feel that it is [...]

We just got back from our tour. I was surprised, no screaming, really clean and kinda looked like a hotel. She showed us the enema room ( totally mandatory here and HIGHLY recommended I was told… erm.. okay ) and also where the delivery rooms were with a shared HUGE bath tub and cd players [...]

Just had my 28 wk apt today and re-did my glucose tolerance test. Thankfully I passed that with flying colors, for real this time!
Also, pupo measures just fine at 27 wks 6 days so we are quite pleased. We weren’t able to get the 3D, but maybe later this week if the dr can swing [...]

I had my 2 hr glucose test last week, and all was okay. They told me my fasting level of 5.6, i guess that’s a bit over 100 in the states was normal, and my 2nd level of 8.0 or 140 was great, and the final level of 5.5 was just fine too… then today [...]

Had my 24 wk update with the private doctor we love. It was great. She confirmed that it is indeed a boy, and a healthy one at that He wasn’t cooperating with pictures at all and kept his hands on top of his head, but we got some nice feet and hand as [...]
