WOW

One of my very good friends, the one that was due a week before me had her baby early this morning at 30 weeks! Her husband called me this morning to tell me her water broke last night and they had to do a c-section. Both Mommy and baby girl are doing well. The baby is over 4lbs too- that is amazing for 30 weeks! I guess our little girls both want to come out early! Her little girl is getting some help breathing and I hope to talk to her again later today to see how the pumping and tube feeding are going!

This is the same friend I have been doing everything with throughout my pregnancy- our prenatal yoga, walking, aquafit, and sharing all the little details about pregnancy. Just last week she was telling me she is there for me and everything will be ok... it's crazy how fast the tables turn!

Knowing her little girl is doing well makes me feel a little better about the idea of having to deliver sooner than later!

I will get to see them both on Friday when I head to that same hospital for my next specialist appointment! I will for sure be bringing some frilly little girl preemie clothes with me!!

I am sorry she delivered early but am glad her little girl is healthy and doing well. I am sure the Drs and nurses are taking great care of her. 4 pounds at 30 weeks is amazing! She would have been a chunky monkey (term of endearment in my household, not a put down) at full term!
