Jend so glad you are home where you can relax, get some rest, I am sure much needed. How did Winston greet you. I am sure he has missed you dearly. Have you thought about getting one of Andrew's blankets for Winston to smell so he will already know Andrew's scent when he comes home?

I just want you to know that I admire Dave and you so much, you both are so strong and an inspiration to us all. Know you have people who care, love and praying for you all. God Bless!

Yay, that's a wonderful site.

I have an odd question, cause I'm trying to figure out if I really am psychic...Jen (or does anyone else remember), did you ever tell us that you were going to give Abigail the middle name 'Rose'? Because the other night when I was thinking of her, I was thinking about her middle name and I thought 'Rose', and then 'where on earth did I get that?' And I just got chills when I saw it on the website.

Thank you for sharing the website with us. {{{hugs}}}

Jen- you are such a strong person. I will keep ya'll in my thoughts and prayers on 6/3 and everyday after that.

Jen-Glad you finally got to come home. Andrew is beautiful. I will continue to send my prayers your way. You are truly amazing and Andrew is blessed to have you as his mommy!

Jen-I'm so glad you are home and resting. I was amazed to see on your website that Andrew is in an isolette already! WOW, it took my dd a week and a half before she was moved to an isolette. That is such wonderful news. He is doing incredible. I would not be surprised if he does come home quite a bit earlier than originally expected. As far as pumping, with dd I never got a ton. But try to relax, think of Andrew, bring a blanket of his home and it will get better. It is hard in the beginning. I truly think where dd was so early, it took a while for my body to get going. But a few cc's will turn into an ounce, then into ounces. You are doing wonderful. Thank you for the update and link. If you want to talk about anything preemie or otherwise, feel free to pm me. dd was born at 31 weeks 3 days and was 2 lbs. 11ozs. So I know what that is like. Otherwise, you will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Jen~ Andrew is just the most precious thing! What a handsome baby boy you have. I've been following your story from the beginning as well. You, Dh, Andrew and Abigail are in my families thoughts and prayers - especially on the 3rd. Hang in there, mama. I think everyone has given you great advice on pumping. I know when I first started I could only get a few cc's. The more you relax the more you will get. I also found that drinking water right before or during a pumping session helped me get more.

Jen so glad to hear you are home! Andrew will be home before you know it!! We are all thinking of you guys.

Jend,
I am going to send you a pm but I have been away from this board so I only recently heard of the events with your heavenly angel and earthly one. As a fellow mother whose little boy passed away in my husband and I's arms. My deepest prayers are with you. I also was on bedrest last year from the end of May till August 18th to ensure my little girl would arrive safely. I wish I would had known earlier what you were going through. Thanks to Steph and Russhan they passed along the message of what was going on and from the bottom of my heart if you need a shoulder from someone who cried many a nights and still does from time to time when I miss my angel please email me koren78@gmail.com. Hi to everyone I have missed!

Jen- My heart aches for you. Just know that your sweet little angel is somewhere where there is no pain and she is watching over your family. Especially her brother. My family has told me so many times that they felt as though when you lose a baby their spirit comes out in the next baby. When I lost the first one, I was devastated, but I feel as though part of he/she came out in Emilee. I think that God has a reason for everything, and he is the one who knows what is best for us all. We will keep your family in our prayers. You are such a strong person to have been through so much, and you are an inspiration to everyone! God bless you, Dave, and Andrew!!!

Jennifer, Dave, Andrew and Winston, our thoughts and prayers are with you all today as you say goodbye to you Little "Hero" Angel Abigail Rose. Know she was shared with you for a short time, but made a big impact on so many of our lives. Her strength and sacrifice was astonishing. As you give her back to God for safe keeping, know she is there with your Dad and loved ones who have passed on before. Let Andrew know she is his guardian Angel watching over his as he grows up to be a great man. God bless you all!
