20-11-2009 - Sophia\'s Birthday - 11/24/09

My mood while writing this blog:
SCARED

During our appointment today we learned that Sophia has dropped from the 5th percentile down to the 3rd. While she grew and gained 8 oz she should have gained at least a pound. Today Sophia's estimated weight was 2 pounds 14 ounces. Due to her lack in growth and complications that can come of this, we scheduled Sophia's birth for next Tuesday. My doctor feels Sophia will do better on the outside and fears that if we keep her in we risk losing her all together. So on 11/24/09 at 5:30 pm I will be taken into the operating room to meet my little girl.

My husband and I decided that we'll have Thanksgiving this weekend with our children. I'm sure family members will offer to take them on Thanksgiving day however I want to make this as much of a positive experience as possible for them. Tonight I'll sit them both down and finally tell them whats going on with their baby sister.

I cant even begin to describe what I'm feeling right now. I thought we had at least until the week after Thanksgiving or the following but things dont always work out as planned. I broke down in my doctors office and started weeping and quickly pulled myself back together again. I have fallen so much in love with my daughter and I havent even met her yet.

I go in tomorrow for a fetal non stress test and again on Monday. My doctor wants to keep a close eye on Sophia as she is very concerned at this point. I'll take my lap top with me on Tuesday and I'll update you all as soon as I can.

Best of luck! She is going to be beautiful! She is so tiny... I pray that she is a strong girl with a will to survive - because she has so many people that love her and will show her how beautiful she really is. It is so true that babies often do better on the outside - and she will do wonderfully.

She is almost here to fill your days with love, and you will soon get on with your new life without the uncertainty you've had so far. Big hugs from here and please know that we are all thinking and rooting for you and Sophia. All the best!!

I am already saying prayers for Sophia to be born healthy and settle into the world with ease. You are so brave and I know you will continue to be out of your love for her - so you are well equipped to cope with her birth on the 24th, what more could you need? I will be thinking of Sophia and you xx

I am sorry she didn't gain more weight but happy she did gain weight. I am so excited for you to see her face before thanksgiving and think that we can give thanks on Thanksgiving that the right dr's will have thier hands on Sophia doing god's work to help her with her fight. She won't have to do all the work on her own anymore. I know how scared you are and I would be scared too and you have the right to cry as much as you need too. We have all fallen in love with Sophia and are sad she isn't doing better but happy that she isn't doing worse. I can't wait to be excited with you to see her little face but am hear to cry with you or let you vent as the time nears and your anxiety increases. You are a great mom!

I know there will be things to worry about then as well but at least you can see her and the doctors can help her better. We will keep yall in our prayers. Enjoy your weekend and keep your faith up and your strength!! God bless yall!

Ohhh I am in tears reading this. I will pray for you and your little angel every night, I pray that you will have a happy outcome, Sophia is a little fighter, she has made it this far. She has a will to live, a will to hang on. As hard as it is try to remember that God will protect her. Good luck and your family is in our prayers.

How scarey! I am praying for you all! At least you know the doctors do truly have her best interest at heart. I hope Sophia can thrive when she gets here Tuesday and prove those doctors wrong once and for all! She sure has been a fighter so far! :0) Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as you come together to celebrate it. Many hugs your way!
