Welcome Madeline! We have prayed and waited patiently for you. The Valdivia Girls can’t wait to meet you.
I am saddened deeply by your story. No words come to mind on what to say. My son was a preemie at 35 weeks. He too had low fluid and had to be induced. He was also born on 3/24, but in 2006. Your story has touched my heart. I wish you all the best of luck in raising your beautiful little girl. You and your family our in my thoughts and prayers.
Hi Matt- I just found your page after reading the article in People. I don’t even know what to say. I was on bedrest in the hospital with my twins for three weeks prior to their delivery 9 weeks early at 30 weeks and 4 days on 1/29/08. Your pictures of the dry erase board brought back memories of just sitting for what seemed like an endless amount of time in that hospital, counting the days I’d been there. I can’t begin to imagine all you’ve gone through and how completely lost and terrified you must feel at times. I think about how my husband would do the same things you would do…come to the hospital while I was on bedrest, go home and check in on and do things around the house, come back to the hospital– and I realize how differently things could have turned out. I’ve really been thinking a lot about how even when we think we’ve got everything under control we really aren’t in control of anything. It’s a very humbling yet maddening feeling. Anyway. I just wanted you to know that you are doing an unbelievable job of taking care of your little girl.
yay!!!!!!!!!!!!
