So as of July 2nd my wife delivered by C-section our little one pound, three ounce daughter Izabella. It was a very scary night that started with a decel and turned into multiple decels that greatly concerned the doctors. By early morning they felt the need to take her for her safety. We were really hoping for another week which would greatly increase survival (from a 60% survival to 90% survival) and risk of brain bleed that can lead to things such as cerebral palsy which as of now there is only a 30% chance she will retain normal brain function. As of now she is doing well. Her brain is immature and she has a bleed they cannot find. Possibly the bleed is from Rh-negative issue since my wife has a negative and baby is A Pos. So they have been transfusing her to see if she can keep up her volume.
So far with all these odds against her she is doing well. They are slowly working her off the vent and her levels are looking good. We have been here for rounds so as to get a detailed look at how she is doing and hear the plans for the day. Very crazy and exiting things. Hopefully she is strong like her mother and can get through this. Looking like the end of September for her to go home with us.😁
