After much stress and many trials LOOK who arrived to join our family a little over a week and a half ago. Miss AVERY arrived over a month early after problems during pregnancy. We are so blessed to finally have her here.....Safely. She is a trooper and has been through a lot with her mother. We did steroid injections to develop her lungs after the baby and mom had been in and out of the hospital with problems with High blood pressure, toxemia, blood clots, and much mental stress...... with every week Dr. appointments (last 3 months), stress tests, nurses, needles, and much worrying if baby would be OK. Dr. Beier decided that after weighing out the risks, it was time to get this baby here, and we had a repeat C-sections to find another little girl to add to our family. Dad was amazing and stayed all 5 days at the hospital to care for mom and Avery (only leaving once to shower). We are firm believers in the steroid shots to develop baby's lungs and feel richly blessed to have taken our now 5 lbs 3 oz baby home with us. The brother and sisters are in LOVE with her. Mom is on the road to recovery after delivery and trials with toxemia....but says it is more than worth all the trial for her new precious baby. She, Avery is a blessing from above!

OH CONGRATS! I totally know what it is like to have a baby early and it is NOT fun! I just wish I could have gotten those shots before I delivered Tag to develop his lungs, but we didn't have enough time. I am sorry you had such a difficult pregnancy and early delivery. Isn't it nice to finally get to bring your baby home? I truley know how you have felt, since my pregnancy are always crazy too! take care of yourself and little Miss Avery (btw, I LOVe that name!) and congrats again!
Congratulations!!! You were brave to do it again!! I hope you are recovering well!! Thanks for posting the pictures of your little Avery!
