Wednesday, July 15, 2015. I hate going this long between updates! It has been a month since I've documented Austin's life here at home and a lot has been going on. Unfortunately the entire past month hasn't been spent at home. We were so sad to be back in the hospital but thankfully his stay wasn't too long this time around! We got up to the ED around 7:00pm and didn't make it to our room until after 11:30pm. Talk about an exhausting evening! We asked the liver specialists if Rh disease is typically this...

Saturday, May 16, 2015. To those of you that read my blog but don't follow us on social media, our little Austin is here! He obviously arrived earlier than expected and the past week has been a whirlwind, which is why I haven't gotten an update posted until now. Putting that foley balloon in and inflating it was no fun! I was a bit bummed when they said it would take 12 hours for the balloon to do its job because I knew we'd be in for a long night. The minute he walked in the room we all felt 100x better!

Friday, April 24, 2015. What a happy week! Transfusion #1 finally happened and it couldn't have gone better! I want to remember as many details as possible so I apologize in advance for this post being quite wordy. Hopefully it's not too hard to follow! We learned pretty quickly that Austin was in need of a transfusion and there would be no more putting it off. The level came back at 66 which clearly put him in "A". A different doctor even confirmed with me afterwards that they were very surprised he was...

Friday, December 26, 2014. It feels good to be 15 weeks! Food choice of the week: A bagel and cream cheese. I'm sure I won't want anything to do with bagels next week! During my pregnancy with Eli I didn't get any stretch marks on my stomach at all but I had them all over my chest. I never stressed about them and didn't really care if I got them or not. I've always figured that's just part of pregnancy! A few people have asked so for those that are wondering: My plan this time is the same as last time...

Friday, January 30, 2015. 20 Weeks and a Twist. So, what does this mean for Austin and this pregnancy? If I just confused you as you read, below is a simple but helpful diagram that explains Rh Disease. Some women become sensitized after their initial blood work so it's not caught during their pregnancy and then serious things can happen so we are very grateful this was detected early on. I was initially quite discouraged about having to deliver at IMC rather than Riverton because I may have to see a new...

Saturday, May 30, 2015. Happy 3 weeks to our sweet boy! It has been awhile, I know. It has been determined that Austin has neonatal diabetes but we're waiting for genetic testing results that should hopefully tell us if it's something he will grow out of or if it's permanent. We won't receive the test results until July so in the mean time we have been focusing on typical preemie milestones like gaining weight and teaching him to eat. Aside from his wacky sugar levels, Austin is doing really well! He che...

Tuesday, November 11, 2014. Halloween and a Birthday Dinner! Halloween is such a fun time of the year! The night after Halloween is when we had our annual Halloween party with our friends from high school. This was our fourth year doing it and, as always, it was a lot of fun! Three years ago during this party the Andersens announced they were having a baby so we always hold out hope that someone will carry on the tradition. Unfortunately it didn't happen this year! In my family we always celebrate birthd...

Liz and Logan: Home Sweet Home

Sunday, June 14, 2015. The team had been hinting at a Friday, June 12th discharge for a little while but we didn't dare share the news until it was official. It was so wonderful hearing during rounds that morning that we were all set to go! Since coming home, Austin has done so well! He is still on a small whiff of oxygen but shouldn't be for too long. Aside from that, he is thriving! June 14, 2015 at 2:35 PM. June 14, 2015 at 4:38 PM. What an amazing miracle! What a handsome little one! June 18, 2015 at...

Friday, February 27, 2015. He is doing great! Is what we were hoping to hear at MCA Scan #3 and those were the doctor's words exactly! They did a growth scan first and little Austin was measuring right where he should be for how far along I am so that was great to see/hear. After checking his growth, they checked the blood flow to his brain and it came back around 25 which is still in the "safe" zone, right where we want him. We are thrilled! I've included the graph again for anyone that's interested.
