62 Super Days

Today we went to the pediatrician just to have her two month check up. Noah and I really like Magdalena's doctor who helped us with her feeding and gave us signs to look for if the feeding should cause her breathing to worsen. Magdalena now intakes 60mL every three hours (-ish....depending on hunger), and she will continue her nightly feedings. Magdalena now weights 5 pounds 8 ounces and is 18 1/2 inches long!! She is getting on up there!! She was such a sweet girl as Dr. B looked her over! Yay Magdalena....62 Days!

  6. Happy 2 month Birthday (plus 1 day!) Sweet Girl! Just look back at the blog and see how she has grown! What a big girl! Just look at those first pictures and list the ways that she has grown so much....her weight, her length, her strength, her tummy growing bigger to take in all that food, her breathing changes, things she used to do and now has grown out of.... what a "big" girl she is for being under 6 pounds....it's all relative!

    Loving you guys,
    Karen

Magdalena Grace Roberts

This morning Magdalena left this world to be with Jesus. There really isn't too much else I can say but to please pray for Julie and Noah. For now, they do not want any calls, emails or visits. I will you keep you updated on the arrangements.

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...
