Wonderful news!!! I can't wait to hear the whole story and see pics of your little guy!

As always, keep watching bp and symptoms for the next 6 weeks in case of post-partum PE, but I hope you stay PE-free!!!

YAY! We made it to 39 weeks and delivered! No bp issues!! My water broke at 39 weeks exactly and we tried for a vbac, but I wasn't progressing, so we had a c-section! Baby and I are now home-I am so happy! I will try to post more later when I have some time! WOW-from 29 weeks last time to 39 this time..I can't believe it!! :)
Our first son was born and passed in Feb of 2010. Born at 29 weeks due to HELLP and passed due to NEC. We miss him every day. :~(

Our second son was born at 39 weeks gestation in Nov of 2011. No HELLP or pre-e! Took LDA starting at week 12 and went off of it at week 38!
