The Nugget Story ... with Pictures! Updated: 6/17/2008 ... She's officially all ours!

[Emily&Matt]

Congratulations! You know, there are so few real surprises in life. You'll never forget how she was born and the surprise of waiting to find out if the baby is a boy or girl. ((((hug))))

Oh Ann... She is just a miracle. I can't believe how strong and amazing she is. I'm so glad the room will be ready for the Cali Princess when she gets home.

Ann,

 

She looks great!! I am so glad that you and Paul are getting into a routine (even if it involves milkshakes and flying poo LOL).

 

BTW - you look awesome!

Thanks for the update -- and the good news! She is soooooo cute! What a personality already. Can you even picture her hanging out in your belly all these weeks?

She looks great, she almost looks like a different baby from the first week. She looks so much bigger to me! I worked in a level 3 NICU for a year and we would get lots of 24 weekers who weighed less than a pound, by the time they left they had gained so much weight they looked like completely different babies! Its is so amazing to watch them grow and develop

Sounds like she's getting stronger everyday, that's such great news. glad to hear it and so glad you posted pics. She's adorable.

Oh Ann! It's been a a day or so since I've checked in and that video of Paul with Gwen when she had the hiccups is so sweet I am wiping away tears! She is so beautiful and she looks so alert!

 

Still thinking positive thoughts for you but everytime I read about more good news I smile! You said you liked success stories -- My cousins, fraternal twins, were premies...she was ready to come out and he most definitely was not! They had him under lights and on a feeding tube for a while after he was born (her too but he had to stay a lot longer). Within a few months from the time he came home though, you would never have known that he needed a little extra TLC when he was first born....by 1 year he had already outgrown her. I know every situation is different, and that cautious optimism is the course to take, but it never hurts to hope for the best case scenario. And it sounds like the hospital staff is impressed with her and encouraged!

 

Keep posting pictures! Can't wait to see more of her being her adorable self!

I am so glad to hear how well she is doing. She looks adorable and she looks like she is a good size for her corrected age.

 

When she gets older and she seems to really have a thing for milkshakes...you know why! HAHAHA

[MsShelley]

thanks for the update, she is getting cuter at every picture (if that is possible) I am glad you are all doing well
