Tragedy has struck our little family once again. There will not be a little brother for Nina nor a son for Jason and me.
Our son was born Saturday morning after a heartbeat could not be detected. All was silent.
We thank you for your continued support and prayers.

Updates and such
I am 35 weeks 1 day today! 9 months here I come! Unbelievable isn't it??!!
They scheduled my c-sec for May 27th--at that point I would be 39 weeks 6 days so hopefully they can move it up to the week before as the day draws near.
Had growth u/s this past Monday and baby boy was at 5 lb 4 oz so he is right on target!
This coming week I will start going to Dr weekly!! We only have two more weeks of the P17 shots to go! Tonight and next Friday!
Nina is doing better in the breathing department. The pollen count is supposed to be way high this weekend so we'll be watching her armed with the nebulizer!
We took her to the dentist this week. At her two year appt the Ped said he did not like the way her two teeth looked so we saw dentist and he just filed the two down and could not tell us the reason for the malformation of the two. Basically the enamel did not grow on them. They look a lot better now.
Not much else to report. Jason is painting baby boy's room this weekend and we are just getting excited that he could be here in the next 3-4 weeks!
I am so thankful to have made it this far. I complain about the foot under my ribs and peeing every 30 minutes since baby boy has decided to use my bladder as a pillow.
But I know the end result is worth it: A take home baby--- No tubes, no wires, no alarms, eyes opened, crying pink baby, a healthy baby boy for us! We are in the home stretch!
I must add: KNOCK ON WOOD!

More Mac -E- Cheese!
Unsure if it's the steroids she was on or a growth spurt, but Nina has been chowing down ALL WEEK! She is demanding food and it's really funny.
I tried to get it on tape, but I kinda messed up the filming by rotating the camera the wrong way.
Just turn your head to the left! (that's my mom in the beginning)

First trip to the ER and admission
Well we had our very first 2:30am trip to the ER Easter Sunday morning.
Here's the scoop: Miss Nina was laboring to breathe Sunday morning/night around 2am...she was retracting and breathing really quickly. ALso had runny nose and cough.
Called Ped and he heard her coughing over the phone and said to go to ER so off we went into the night like the VonTrapp family. Got to ER around 3am. Her pulse ox was 94 and she had a 100 or 101 temp. Started her on blow by O2. During the ER part of the adventure she had a bronchospasm which required one hour long breathing treatment of albuterol and another steriod (cannot rem name) They worked and she was better.
Chest x-ray normal, blood normal...Watching her get blood drawn was HORRIFIC!
Around 10:30 we were admitted to the Ped floor. They put her on prednisone 2x a day for 5 days and started albuterol every two hours with the nebulizer. She slept through the night Sunday without any O2 so they downgraded to every 4 hour treatments. She held her sats on every 4 so we were send home Monday afternoon.
Docs say she caught a virus and affected her breathing/lungs. Called it reactive airway disease.
So we have been home since yesterday afternoon. The whole 36 hours we were at the hospital she really never acted sick. She was happy and loved to play in the ped's playroom and ride in the wagon. Nina is just amazing that she bounced back so quickly from this!

Updates
So 33 weeks! Go Me! All is well. I really, really want to calm down (not obsess over ever little cramp, twitch, pressure and enjoy these last few weeks of this pregnancy!
Nina is now going to school 3x a week. We decided after Monday's class that it would be best to send her 3x. She really seems to dig it and we think being around other kids is exactly what she needs to learn and thrive!
