Lunch Update 08-07-08

Here's the latest update from the hospital. Noah was able to give Magdalena her first bath this morning. Unfortunately, there will not be a picture posted since there was no camera around when it happened. She is still making progress in the NICU and is being cared for by a great group of nurses over there. Julie has started to move around a little more today. With that, she is starting to feel a little more pain. Dr. C informed her that she could possibly begin to do some walking today.

Just as a side note, Julie and Noah are being updated on your comments left here. So know that your thoughts are being expressed to them as they are received.

    Praise be to God! Thanks for keeping us updated. We're praying for quick healing Julie. Hope the pain is more manageable than unbearable as you start to try and walk.

    I have three kids and three cesarian scars to show for it. The first four days are really hard. The pain would drive me crazy. but then after it just got more comfortable. It didn't disappear, it was just a little less tought to deal with. The Bernard Bunch is thinking of you so much. She is so lovely. We are hooked on her 'little' life. Be sure to keep us posted.
    All our love

Making the Decision to Not Make the Decision

I get the question, "Are you going to have any more kids?" asked often. Since finding out Magdalena's diagnosis it was always a tough question to answer. We had always envisioned ourselves with multiple children, but there was always the lingering thought of having to endure this difficult situation again. Although it is less than a one percent chance that we would have another child with T18, the percentage still exists. When pregnant, I said multiple times that I couldn't do this again and my mom constantly reminded me that it is not always that difficult. Being pregnant was physically uncomfortable, but I was referring to the constant emotional exhaustion. As Magdalena continued to do well, Noah and I weren't sure when to begin thinking about other children. Noah and I discussed that I would work really hard at losing my weight, but I was willing to be five pounds more than what I was originally. People poked fun at my not eating Magdalena's birthday cakes...
