18 weeks and 2 days later…
Gwyneth is out of the hospital. WHOO HOO! :)
Here are a couple of pictures.
A note Nate posted today, thanking everyone at the NICU, is here.
And the post announcing Gwyneth’s birth on January 8, is here. The title, “I’m a Daddy!” got me choked up all over again.
She was born at 24 weeks, 4 or 5 days gestation — I can’t remember which. A full-term pregnancy is 40 weeks. The gestational age of “viability” is 24 weeks.
She’s come a LONG way.
She’s a week past 4 months old, but her age, adjusted for her due date, is three weeks. She weighs 4 pounds, 10 oz. They have lots of night feedings ahead of them.
Remember, Tricia is only six weeks post-double lung transplant. She’s still doing physical therapy, and still recovering.
So keep praying. And thanks for all the prayers so far. I KNOW they made a world of difference.
