Thank you for all the prayers and love. Honestly, Nostr, there is no second best πŸ’œ. The good news is that my baby girl is finally breathing on her own. My wife finally got to hold her yesterday. Everything is progressing well, and maybe she can finally come home soon! It's been a long couple of weeks. The bad news is that she failed her hearing test, which got us a little worried, but I read that it's common for premature babies to fail their initial test. We will remain positive. Thank you again for all the prayers and love, it really lifted our spirits. Love you all πŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ«‚πŸ«‚

Good morning, Nostr. Please pray for my baby girl, who's been in the NICU for a while since my wife's emergency C-section due to preeclampsia. She's improving, but I won't rest easy until we can bring her home. image

Prayers for you and your family, we will be having our first child in a week and a half. Hoping things go well since my wife has high blood pressure, so the baby will be coming a bit early for us as well.
So glad to hear she is doing better! I studied sign language for 6 years, and fell in love with deaf culture. So while I hope her hearing does come in, there is a beautiful world of language and experience for deafness.

We speak continued healing for your baby’s hearing in Jesus’s name
Congratulations! If I can be of any assistance please let me know. My twins were premature and in the NICU for 2.5 months and 3.5 months. They are now 19 ! Time flies. But the NICU stress is quite awful and overwhelming. I will keep praying and I am thrilled to hear such a great update. She is beautiful and perfect. Glad your wife is doing well!
They always fail the hearing test. Its an unreliable test with many false positives. Its worth going back to have her tested after a few weeks or months, and I've heard if you don't show up you will call attention from the county and subsequently CPS (so don't fuck around with the test), but its a harmless test and supposedly the earlier you learn about a hearing problem the more likley they can correct it before its permanent.

Man that’s tough. Same thing happened to us 8 years ago march 3rd. She blew two holes in her lung and had to be sedated for almost two weeks while hooked up. She flat lined at one point and I watched them submerge her in a tub of ice water while they prepped everything to protect her brain. All good now! How everything works out for you too! It’s tough. Hang in there. image

glad to hear she was able to hold her, not much that would scare me more than placing my children's lives in the hands of hospital staff, heart goes out to you for going through the ordeal, excited for the day you guys get to go home as a family
Wow, it's been four months since my last Nostr Note. I missed you guys. Thank you for all the prayers; my daughter got out a couple of days after this post πŸ™. Life's been a beautiful whirlwind since. My daughter is beautiful, happy, and healthy. I am truly blessed. I can see what they mean when they say "it takes a village to raise a child." It took some struggling at first, but we are getting the hang of this parent thing and finally got some good routines. image Nostr, what have I missed? I've been lurking at times but not enough to stay on top of stuff. The latest @CITADEL DISPATCH @ODELL with @Alex Gleason got me excited. Has anyone made an Elon mirror account on Nostr yet? I might do it if it hasn't been done yet. What else has been built or improved on in the last four months I should check out? Stay humble, stack sats, and make babies πŸ’œ
