I started bleeding at about 8 weeks
into my pregnancy and bleed on and off
untill 19 weeks, had about 5
ultrasounds and was told everything
was fine, there was just no answers as
to why and at 19 weeks 3 days i had a
gush of pink fluid and was rushed to
hospital where i was told my
devastating news i was advised to have
a termination as there was no way
would i get through the next 24 hours
without going in to labour i was
advised to stay in hospital but i
wanted to go home where i had my other
3 children around to try to take my
mind off it. so i went home and played
a waiting game totally devastated, but
i got through 48 hours and i got
through the next 9 weeks with hospital
appointments 3 times a week keeping a
check on me and baby. on the 7/7/04 i
had an appointment with the top doctor
who told me to get moving around or i
would have clots in my legs so after 9
weeks total rest i went shopping and
at 2am on the 8/7/04 i started
bleeding heavy and was rushed to
hospital and gave bith by c section to
a very ill little boy named kade
stephen weighing 2lb 14oz he was
rushed straight to nicu and put on a
high frequency ocillator and had a
chest drain for a collapsed lung, then
we were told his heart was on the
wrong side and they did not know if it
would cause problems i broke my heart
the first time i saw that tiny little
baby with so many wires and machines
but he fought so hard at 3 weeks he
was transferred to a different
hospital because he had a blockage in
his stomach which lucky enough cleared
its self without surgery and he was
sent back to our local hospital a week
later off a ventillator and on cpap i
was happy he was getting better he
moved out of icu and in to hdu one
step closer to the door or so i
thought, then a set back he picked up
phnomonia and back on a ventillator he
spent 3 weeks fighting for his life
again he was critical we were told he
would not make it but again he did and
he slowly moved to the nursery on low
flow oxygen and after 14 long weeks
(96 days) we took our little miracle
home on oxygen for chronic lung
disease weighing 6lb 15oz he is 17
weeks old now 8lb and doing really
well hoping to be off the oxygen for
xmas cant wait. every day i look at
him and know someone was looking after
him and thank them for my little
miracle son kade stephen.x good luck
to you all out there going through the
same and my advise to you all never
give up hope its the hardest thing i
have ever had to go through in my life
but it worth it
