pray for my son. *update*

[Anonymous]

Just pray he makes it please I had my son at 26. He is in the nicu, weighing in at 2 lbs. He is doing ok. Not breathing on his own. Yet. The docs are sure he will pull through. I just came back to my room.

*Rhage is doing great. He's up from 2lbs to 7lbs 6oz. He gets to come home tomorrow!

He got it done this morning his daddy wanted it done as he and his big brother have been circ'd.

Quoting wolfybaby:

im glad your son is doing better! with our science today, we can save babies born as early as 20 weeks gestation! i had an aunt lose a baby to a premature birth at 15 weeks or so. it was very sad. so always remember to hug your lucky little man every single day.

i have a totally random question [other mothers who have had premature boys can answer this too] that i hope you dont mind me asking. since babies cannot be circumcised while in the nicu, did that change your opinion on having the procedure done at all, if you were planning on getting it done? like, during the weeks [or months for some parents] of his stay in the nicu and "getting to know" his intact body, did you change your mind and decline the circumcision that the hospital offers before discharge?

Oh yes! His name is Rhage Brian. I wasn't sure on the name until he came out kicking, screaming and full of fight.

That is awesome news! So this may be a stupid question but by any chance are you a Black Dagger Brotherhood fan? I am. Lol

Yay!! Even though he is doing better I pray that he continues doing great. God bless him and your family. Nice to hear that such a small baby could be SO strong and pull through and grow so much to help him survive. God is good and your baby deserved life and will have a chance to experience this wonderful thing called life. Always good to hear GOOD stories..
