Riley Ernest Mitchell Meier

Hello everyone, my name is renee and i am pregnant with my first child. i am engaged and live with the father of my child, and his name is mitch. we have been together since july 2006, and have been engaged since Christmas Eve 2007, ironically the day i got pregnant! this was an unplanned pregnancy, but i still very happy to become a mommy! although i am a little scared because when i was 17, i got pregnant with mitch, and we lost the baby really early on, so no one knew i was pregnant. i just hope God will let me have a very healthy pregnancy! i can't wait for the first trimester to be over with! we are also hopeing for a boy! mitch has 4 nieces on his side, and i have no one on my side, so a boy would make his family proud, but whatever we do have, will be a blessing!

i found this neat website that takes you step by step through the baby's development!

JUST MOMMIES predicts...

Get your bags packed early just in case you need them. Make sure your partner has a phone available when he's away because this baby just might come early. We predict your baby will come 2-3 weeks early. Your baby will most likely be born in the morning. Justmommies predicts that your baby will weigh approximately 8.3 pounds and that your labor will be about 13 hours long.

Renee,

Hi. Sorry u had a close call last weekend. I know it musta scared u outa your mind? Thats one of the first things they did with me both times I went into early labor was to start pushing those fluids. I never knew that being dehydrated could cause u to go into preterm labor, and I had been swimming quite a lot right before I went into labor too.
Well, Im sorry u guys didnt get the house u wanted. Hopefully you can fix the apartment up just as cute though. What matters is that you all are together and the baby is healthy and strong. :)
As for holding Lilly all day. We dont. We hold her when she gets her feedings through the tube. We cant move her around much because it causes her breathing to go down. Preemies cant be handled and jostled around a lot. I have to sit really still with her, if I move too much she might choke. She is just so precious though. We are thankful we even get to hold her at all. She is doing better at taking formula from the bottle now. Her weight is picking up and they stopped her caffiene as they said she no longer needed it so I am assuming she isnt having any further apnea spells, those are scary! She has come a long way. Its wonderful what the NICU can do with babies. There was a little one there that weighed only 8 ounces and when we left she was doing better than expected. Her parents have to scrub in like we do, but they have to put on a whole suit to cover their clothes and a mask. They cant even touch their baby. They allowed us to touch Lilly from the very beginning, but we couldnt stroke her skin as they say it is painful for them at that stage. Well, Ive talked your ear off, hope everything goes ok with you during the rest of your pregnancy. If you should happen to go into preterm labor, dont worry much. Ive seen a lot of miracles these past few weeks and u are far enough along your little one will do great!

Brittany

Renee,

Hi. Thanks for the comments on Lilly. She got put into the open crib today, so she no longer has to be in the Incubator. She is so sweet. She is drinking from a bottle really well now. She just has to be drinking from it well I guess before her release. She is up to 4lbs 3 ounces at her last weigh in. She is maintaining her own body temps now so that was another criteria for release as well. Im hoping she gets to come home soon. So how is your pregnancy and your little one doing?
