My little man is a fighter. Born at 33 weeks 1 day ; January 11th,2018 @4:19 - 3lbs 12 oz.

I had Polyhydramnios (a lot of amniotic fluid) I had a emergency c-section.

Monday they transferred us to a new hospital (Jackson,Ms) for a neonatal ent specialist. He has narrow nasal cavity, which he had surgery Thursday. He goes back to surgery this Thursday to make sure it worked. If it did, he can get off the vent. and start a bottle, then come home.

17 days inNICU. 2 hours away from home. ( my husband aunt lives near the hospital, I’ve been staying at; I just won’t leave him. If I do go for a long time or go back home to get more clothes I get so sick to my stomach..

But it’s been a nightmare with the hospital in Jackson. We were told so many things. Since it’s a “teaching hospital “ they want to do some many surgery’s on these babies in the nicu it breaks my heart. St first they told us he was going to get a tracheotomy and all this stuff we made a phone call to Wesley ( Hattiesburg,ms where I had him) and somehow they changed there entire plan. And did the surgery we were told they were going to do from the start. (Reason why we came to Jackson,ms was for the surgery they did Thursday.

4lbs 5oz- as of Thursday. He’s doing good, just waiting for Thursday to see if the surgery worked then if it did, no more vent. And bottle time..

He’s been off the vent since he was 2days old but once we made it to Jackson and left to get a hotel they call us after they put a vent in.. he didn’t need it. They told us because they didn’t want to watch him to closely....
