I got home today and have so much to do but I just wanted to get on here really quick and thank everyone for all the love and support for me and my new little daugheter.

Lexi is doing amazingly well! I was delievered via emergency c-section at 31 1/2 weeks pregnat due to HELLP Syndrome and pre-eclampsia.

Here is a link to some pics on my fb for those who I have not added yet, there have been so many, I hope I didnt miss anyone.

I hope this link works. Thank you again everyone!

Moderator note: Facebook links aren't allowed, so unfortunately I had to remove the link. I'll put a couple of photos here, and I'm not sure how much Danielle will be around, so feel free to PM sarahp if you would like the link for all the photos

I still can't believe how good her colour is, and how well she looks for a baby born so early. Sending lots of hugs and vibes for you, Jon and Lexi

I'm so happy Lexi is doing well and can't wait to hear you can take her home with you. I bet you can't wait too.

Thanks everyone! My little girl is making great strides! She is such a wiggle worm too! She pulled off all her leads like 3 times today and even tried to pull out he feeding tube like 4 times (in 30 min, lol)

I find it rather amuzing that my cats are significantly larger than my human child, but that will change quickly I'm sure!


Here are some pics from today


Holding my finger


My first time feeding her! (through the feeding tube)


My second time feeding her, this time with Daddy's help


And her little face!

Wow, that picture of her holding your finger brought tears to my eyes


I was just reading more about HELLP syndrome. It's seriously scary!!!! I'm so incredibly relieved they caught it in time and were able to deliver Lexi safely, and that you have recovered so well

Oh my goodness that picture of her holding your finger is just too precious!


I am SO GLAD you are both doing so well! It's GREAT to hear she's such a fiesty little one!

That's a pretty good size for being so early. My DIL is pregnant with triplets, which is pretty much a given they will be early.

Thank God 31 weeks isn't the bad omen it used to be.

Lexi is absolutely gorgeous, and she really looks great, especially considering she was 31 weeks.

The pic where she has your finger is so cute!

I'm so happy everyone's doing well.
