CONGRATULATIONS LAURA!!!
Big or small, early or late, babies are such a joy. I'm saying a prayer that Brandon is better soon (science is amazing these days!) and that he can start his life at home with mommy and daddy real soon
Oh, congratulations! I'm sorry he came so early, but I agree that he will be fine.
When I went to nursing school and was in the neonatal intensive care nursery, I remember looking at those teeny tiny babies, and wondering how they would do long term. When I asked the question out loud, a 20 y/o girl who was volunteering told me that she was one of the first premie babies cared for at that nursery, and she was doing great! In fact, she excelled at school and was a beautiful young lady!
Prayers that Brandon will grow stronger each day, and that you and Brent will have peace of heart in knowing that he is well.
CONGRATULATIONS on baby Brandon`s birth.
I`ll be praying that all will go just fine for him
We had a grandaughter born at 23 weeks, weighing 1 pound and 6 ounces....she is 10 years old now and doing great. The preemies these days have so much more going for them. It`s amazing !!

My youngest sister was born 2 months premature, weighing in at 4lbs. And spent her first three weeks of life in a incubator at the hospital. Hopefully your boy will be alright, and can come home ASAP!
Congratulations on the birth of your son. I agree with others modern medicine is awesome. My niece had her twin boys 8 weeks early in August and the smaller one wasonly in the hospital three weeks!! They are both growing like weeds know.
I hope Brandon will be able to join you at home soon.
Thank you all for all of your thoughts and prayers. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to respond and let you all know how wonderful you all are to pray for someone you don't even know. I am so blessed to have found this website and everyone on it!! I will try to post more often but right now he's still here in the hospital and I don't want to leave his side
He's doing well and hopefully coming off the vent today (fingers crossed.) I'll let you all know soon how he is.
