**If you want to help - Nugget and Ann**

[Christine]

Tammy I will e-mail you if I hear anything, but I assume Paul will send out another e-mail as soon as Nugget arrives.

[TammyB]

Cool thanks Christine. Sarah has been sending me PM's as well, but not sure what her work hours are so I wasn't sure if I would get an update.

 

I was thinking about you this morning, how are you doing? Do they expect you to be ontime?

[PaulaV]

OMG!

I will send you a donation Christine.

I will keep Ann, Paul and Nugget in my thoughts and prayers.

Just an FYI if they didn't already know...Most major cities have a Ronald McDonald House near the Children's Hospitals and other major hospitals. They can stay there for less than $20/day. It would probably be a better option than having to rent somewhere.

 

FI stepmom and dad stayed at the one in Dallas while his little brother was in NICU with spinabifida and other complications. They said it was very nice and the people there were very helpful. I don't recall if they said that food was included or not, but I know they were able to get discounts to lots of places because they were staying at the house.

 

My prayers are with the three of them. Everything will be fine. My best friend has twin sisters that were born at 6 months. Their waist was the size of her dad's wedding band. Today they are rambunctious eight year olds who you would have never guessed had anything wrong with them. The first couple of years were rough because they had to be on heart monitors but they are still here with us.

Nugget has arrived, and is a Nuggette!

 

Gwendolyn Ann arrived at 1:53 am today, weighing in at 5 lbs. She is doing VERY well, especially for her gestational age. I haven't talked to Ann yet in person, but got an email from Paul stating that mom & baby are both doing well.

 

Once I get an update again from Ann we'll know a little more about where they stand in terms of what they need and will keep you up to date.

 

 

Thanks so much to everyone for your help during this time. It never ceases to amaze me the bond we all have on this forum... it's just the coolest thing...

oh YAY! What a beautiful name. She is such a lucky girl to be born to such loving, wonderful people! I am so excited.

[ErinB]

Yay! I love baby girls! We need to get Baby Nugette a BDW onesie! I'll see what I can find.

 

Gwendolyn is such a pretty name!

 

I'm so glad to hear that mom and baby are doing well!
