    Injury/Illness
    Premature Birth

    At 6 weeks pregnant, Dylan and Katie found out they were expecting identical twins. At 16 and 3 we were diagnosed with stage 2 TTTS and were sent to Minneapolis for surgery. 16 and 4 we were at stage 3 and had surgery at 2 that afternoon. Surgery went fine and we tried to rest that evening. The next morning, at 16 and 5, on November 2, 2018, we lost our donor, baby b, Hons Jeremiah. Weeks passed between bed rest and trying to go back to work, my water broke at 20 and 2. I was put back on home bed rest until December 26, 2018 when I was at 23 and 3 and was admitted to the hospital until baby a, Luke Joseph, was born. At 32 and 6, March 2, 2019, Luke was born via C-section and was taken to NICU minutes later and has been there since.

    Car seat test!

    Guess who’s having a car seat test today! After his feeding he’ll do his hour and a half car seat test. Prayers he passes! We haven’t even started his 3:00 feeding yet (nurse said maybe 3:30 she’d get his bottle ready) and then do the car seat. They will also show us how to do the thickener because he did amazing on that so thinking that could be the solution to his feeding spells

    Update

    On Monday’s the doctors switch rotation. This week we talked about circumcision which can mean being closer to going home! So this week or next week Luke will have that procedure done. We continue to work on feedings and then hopefully a car seat test soon as well.
