Rooming In

We got the call this morning, and tonight is the night. Sometime late this afternoon or early evening, we’ll go in to the hospital and spend the night taking care of our daughter in a private room (probably in postpartum). Before that happens, we will . . .

  • Fill Becca’s prescriptions at a local pharmacy
  • Stop at the local police station to have our car seat installation inspected for safety
  • Get training on the heart/apnea monitor that we’ll take Becca home on
  • Get training on giving Becca all her medications

If all goes well, we can bring Becca home tomorrow. If Becca decides she’s not quite ready (by doing really poorly at her feedings or having apnea events, I suppose), then she’d get some more time at the NICU and we’d try again later.

Thanks everyone for your prayers. We thank the Lord for bringing Becca to this point, and we’re excited about the major life changes that start this afternoon!

  1. I have been following your blog since mom sent me the link back in December and have prayed for you guys many times! SOOO excited to hear the good news! I know it is a bit scary to have to learn all this and be responsible for a lot of medical things especially on one so tiny but you guys can do it!!! So happy for you guys!!!

  2. This warms my heart more than words can express. It’s been exciting to see God answering prayers the last 10.5 weeks….even the weeks prior to Ms. Becca’s arrival when we were praying for her to stay “in the oven” longer. Josh and Amy, you have made and will continue to make wonderful parents. I anxiously await pictures of the princess in her new castle. We love you both, and we earnestly pray for strength as you adjust to the new schedule at home.

  13. Hey Amy, I’m been thinking about you and wondering how the baby is doing. The pictures are beautiful. I tried writing to you, but I guess you have been busy. I sent a message to Sam and he sent me this blog. I hope you all are doing well. I’m so glad you are going to be able to take your precious little one home. Love, Dr. Ball
