My daughter was born Dec 24 and spent 2 weeks in the NICU. I was looking at your NICU pictures thinking, "that is so familiar," figuring it was just familiar because it was a NICU. Then I saw your pictures of a very familiar mountain...so yeah, we live in Portland and were at St. V's also! Small world. I didn't recognize any of your nurses, though. We still go to St. V's every Friday for appointments for Daphne, so those trips over the bridge are as familiar as ever. =) <BR/><BR/>I would love to do something to help you out...For us since we basically got up, went to the hospital, came home, went to bed, it was nice to have easy-to-grab food on hand. Please let me know if there is a time I can drop off some groceries like lunch meat, fruit, veggies, gallons of ice cream...whatever you need. So many people have helped us during this time; I want to be able to pay it forward. <BR/><BR/>Praying for you as you travel this journey, <BR/>~melissamelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15564384406028281735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6307778671703210059.post-75709058764714743832009-03-14T22:07:00.000-07:002009-03-14T22:07:00.000-07:00You have so much on your plate right now.

You are all in my prayers.<BR/><BR/>Roo'ing is great! Good for the mommy and good for the baby! I used to keep a button down shirt in my daughters isolette drawer so that I could easily change in the pumping room or restroom. That way I didn't have to remember to wear a button down shirt everyday it was my turn to 'Roo (my husband and I alternated days) and I didn't have to bother the nurses for a gown. Plus the shirt had my scent on it as opposed to the smell of a hospital gown. Hope you can kanagroo often until you can hold her in a more traditional way. :) Every now and then I still get the urge to strip my daughter down to diaper only and cuddle with her chest to chest. I don't think she'd hold still long enough though- lol!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732014961087715914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6307778671703210059.post-75145971733996210922009-03-14T21:22:00.000-07:002009-03-14T21:22:00.000-07:00Still praying!!!!
