Request for vibes/ prayers for my family/niece

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

I am on my way to the hospital. My niece was due in one month and is having a c section right now. Apparently the baby is breech but there must be something else going on for them to take it so early.

When I get back I'll update this. In the meantime, I just want everything to be alright in the long run with her and the baby.

Thanks all.

and don't worry too much - one month early isn't bad these days, and a C-section will solve the breech problem.

Congratulations, Aunt Teena!!

Hope it works out for her AOK :hi:

[cally]

22. Sending a prayer for her

but actually I don't think one month is that early. Please encourage your sister to breast feed (if that was her initial choice). I had my first one month early and she had to stay in the hospital. The nurses did everything they could to dissuade me from breast feeding while my daughter was hospitialized. They were wrong and I'm glad I persevered.

:hug: I think it will be OK. :-)

[philosophie_en_rose]

23. Sending love your way.

[greatauntoftriplets]

24. Good luck to your niece and family.

The baby could be in distress from the position. The triplets were taken six weeks early because they were so overcrowded that one was in distress. They are now wonderfully healthy 3-year-olds who talk all the time.

Just the other day, one told me he was "naked".

[populistmom]

25. I hope and pray all is well for her and her little one.

[SoCalDem]

34. Everything will be fine.. Don't worry too much

If the baby is breech and is in an odd position, it's not likely to turn.. It might also be a big baby and may be pressing on the placenta.. A detached placenta (abruption) is a big emergency (I had TWO of them).. They may be doing this as a precaution.

That baby will probably weigh between 6-7 pounds and it should be fine..

I know that everyone will worry, but I still say she and the kiddo will be fine :)

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

54. THANKS EVERYBODY!! You're the best!

I posted this in a hurry and was worried sick when I left.

It turned out my niece had gone to the doctor because she had been having SOME contractions but the baby had not moved this morning and she was worried. The doctor discovered the baby was breech and decided to do a C section.

She was born near 5 pm and is a tiny little thing with long legs and long fingers. 6 lbs 1 oz and 18 inches long. Real expressive with a healthy set of lungs but also a pretty mellow infant. All the other infants would scream when they got their tests and exams in the nursery..she would fuss when they bugged her but calmed right back down...I must have stared at her for two hours straight before we got to take her to my niece.

Hopefully she'll eat a lot these next few weeks and keep that birth weight on to stay healthy.

For those that commented, my niece will breast feed and if you recall little Gracie was born last January so..there's no shortage of takers. ( I have to laugh because my niece waited til she was over 30 to get married. Her husband, prior to marriage, was concerned that they were moving too fast and now they have 2 kids inside 13 months...so much for caution...but at least they are 2 really cute kids...there's nothing worse than having to fake it with your own family)

I really appreciate all the well wishes and prayers..I was very concerned when I left.

Oh..and in case you're wondering...no name yet...they hadn't arrived at a conclusion ..they thought they had a few more weeks...so for right now, she's BABY BLANK!

But cute...real cute..I know..I'm biased...but other people looked through the nursery room window and said she was cute so I have witnesses.
:-)

[SoCalDem]

55. I was full term and only weighed 6lb 3 oz.. That's a healthy weight

See I told you she'd be fine :)

[Dookus]

56. yay!

Congratulations!

I weighed 4lbs 10oz back in 1961 (I'm a twin, born a month early).

Her size is fine! Enjoy her! I'm thrilled for you and your family.

PS: "Dookus" is a fine name for a boy or a girl!

[Rhiannon12866]

57. I am so glad that this turned out so well for you NSMA!

It sounds like you have had quite a day! The little one sounds darling. You had better post photos when you get some. And the name!:-)

[Pithlet]

58. That's great

I missed your post earlier, and was going to tell you that one month is premature, but not terribly so, and most have a very good prognosis.

Congratulations, proud aunt!

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

60. Thanks! Great Aunt..twice now

They're my nieces kids!

[lojasmo]

63. Fantastic!

Glad all is well.

:evilgrin:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

61. They know better!

[GOPisEvil]

64. Yay!!!

I'm glad all is well. I was 6lbs even and 19 inches at birth, and I turned out fine. :D

71. 'Auntie' is the best job in the world, isn't it?

And to quote my late nephew when my niece made me a great aunt...
"You've always been a greataunt!"

So, you passing around chewing gum cigars today?

High five, NSMA! All us evilDUers will do our best to make sure the yet to be named young lady inherits a nation she can be proud of. How bout it, DUers? Win one for the baby?

I am so glad that things went well and seem OK. My kids were little like that but I am not very big either. They were fine and are big strapping 6 footers now. Congratulations to you and your family. Nothing is like a new baby. Have fun!

[Rhiannon12866]
