if babies born at 21 weeks will ever have a chance to survive.
I hope so, I wish they would have 19 months ago.
Today is prematurity awareness day and it has my mind spinning. Just thinking all the what ifs again. I know it doesn't do any good and I know I will never have the answers, but I still think them. I still want to know if there was something that could have prevented my preterm labor. I wish there would have been...
I wore purple today and asked a couple friends at work to do so too for me and my girls...they did. I was also touched that a couple more friends who I didn't mention it to, but read my fb status wore purple too. There was just a handful of us, but they did it for me, for Sophia & Ellie, and that just makes me...happy, I guess.
So the 25 Days of Giveaways is happening and I will get the schedule set up and e-mailed to those of you who are hosting a day as soon as I can, hopefully before Thanksgiving. The first giveaway will be December 1st, so mark your calenders!!
Registration is closed.

I think (and hope) some day it can happen. Just look at now compared to just 10 years ago. Can't wait for the giveaways!
ReplyDeleteOh, Tina, I had the same thought yesterday. If only 21 weeks were possible, we'd both have our girls. Hugs to you.
ReplyDeleteI hope so, too, Tina. Thinking of our girls...
ReplyDeleteBTW, you can count me in for the giveaway if you haven't already, if there's room.

I wonder too, at what point the earliest of babies will be given a chance on the outside...
ReplyDeleteI've read a few cases of 21 weekers, but they are few and far between... I wish it were easier, somehow... That we had the technology today...
It's heartbreaking.
As the aunt to a premie, I hope one day all premies can make a safe arrival.
ReplyDeleteI hope someday it can happen too <3
ReplyDeleteHi Tina... I am just finding your blog from another mamma. I lost my 4th child at 34 weeks in September. Thank you for sharing the beautiful story of your two girls and life afterwards... having living children alongside the loss of a child is a unique parenting experience- to say the least. We are TTC #5 and your story continues to give me hope.... much grace- Leslie
