Halle- jane Born at 11.50pm weighing just 5 IB 6oz.
Birth Story
When I was 20 weeks pregnant, we found that Halle had a lump in her brain (dural sinus malformation in the posterior fossa)
At 32 weeks pregnant, we was told there was a very good chance Halle wasen't going to survive and if she did she would probably end up handicapped, so we was offered termination- which we rejected, broke our hearts to even think about it!
On May 11th I went into hospital for a planned inducement.. being induced at 1.30pm and straight away having contractions. was then in labour for 10-11 hours and had her at 11.50pm. Again not having pain relief lol When she was born, she came out and there was complete silence for minutes.. but when she started screaming.. me and George burst into tears, was the most emotional experience weve ever EVER been through. We was so worried about what was going to happen. The next day, she undergoed many mri scans and tests and they said the dural sunis malformation had no blood flow to it- meaning it wont grow anymore and she may not even need an operation. She also had a big birth mark across her arm which the doctors was worried about- so they checked her liver and blood out and everything passed perfectly. She had another test done on her heart and found there was a small hole in her bottom ventriculls but hoping is will heal up in a few months time, so she will need to be tested oftern. Halle-Jane is our little miracle and we cannot believe how lucky we are! She has been so sooooo strong and I'm so proud of her. She is sooo beautiful! I would like to thank everyone so much for the support.. all our friends and family. We appreciate everything and making us strong and keeping us together! It has been a real struggle, but now things are looking fantastic and can't wait to show her off to everyone :-)
