Hi Renee!! I was born at 24 weeks, in the NICU for 3 months, my dad gave me 4 pints of blood, and here I am ❤😊 that was back in 1997 and super scary for my parents. My mom had an incompetent cervix but they fixed it and then also had my brother 4.5 years later and he was born on time and in good health! I am proud to say that even though that happened to me I am here 25 years later in perfect health. I hope my little story shows you that there is hope and don’t lose faith! I am sure my parents thought that I would have a ton of complications yeah I did not and I am perfectly healthy now! It will all be okay!💕🤗

My daughter has had kidney issues her whole life. When she got pregnant with my granddaughter she ended up in the hospital with a bad kidney infection at that point she was about 20 weeks. Baby girl hardly had any amniotic fluid so they kept her on bed rest. My granddaughter was born at 24 weeks. 2 lbs 4 oz via emergency c section. I will never forget the walk down the hospital corridor the doctor telling me to prepare my daughter that her baby might not survive and if she did there would be more bad days than good. Out sweet baby fought and had more good days than bad. I am happy to say she is a sassy 8 yr old now.

I will keep you in my prayers and your sweet baby boy.

I had my baby at 26 weeks, 1lb 8oz, 3 months in the NICU. STAY STRONG MAMA! It's a journey unlike anything you will ever experience. I know it's hard especially when you can't be at the hospital. I know you don't know me but I watch you all the time and if you'd like an ear from another nicu mom, I would be honored to offer support in any way 💕

[therealscruggles]

You have been on my mind and in my prayers repeatedly the last two months! I felt crazy worrying about someone I have never met, i’m so relieved to hear you are okay. Continuing to pray for you and your family! 💜

[ririrodriguez]

It’s so good to hear from you Renee, I think we’ve all been worried about you. Sending you prayers and so much love xx

[missleeeenx]

It’s so strange how I’ve been so worried about someone I’ve never even met and so weird how I cried and smiled along with you as you told your story, Renee. I’m so happy you and you’re baby are doing well! Never lose that hope and keep staying strong! ❤

[GamerGrade]

Congratulations on your beautiful boy! My boy was also early a couple of months and he is now 9yo and super healthy and strong. You, your partner and your family all have a life of joy and love awaiting ahead ❤

[hopehopes]

I’ve never clicked on a video so fast. You’ve been in my prayers so heavily. Much love and take all of the time you need. ❤❤ we love you.

I was born at 27 1/2 weeks! 2lbs 10oz. I believe I was in the NICU for about 1 month and a half and a specialized hospital.
As far as I've been told, I shouldn't have made it. But I've always defied the odds, especially with growth! I'm almost 6 ft tall, and 30 now! I don't know how my parents did it back in 1992, but I can imagine medicine has come a long way.
Happy to hear you and your baby are doing well! ❤

I am a triplet and my siblings and I were 3 months early! Spent a couple months in the NICU and my mom tells me all about how great the staff there was! You got this Renee, thinking of you and your little family!

[carriehagstrom]

Your baby is so precious! I’m sorry for the difficulties you had to go through, but so glad the baby is healthy and growing and that you’re healthy too! Thank you for sharing this vulnerable part of your story. I know it will help so many mamas going through similar experiences!

[morganradalia]

I just started as new grad nurse in the NICU and your story just touched my heart. I have such a great perspective on how many of the moms are feeling now so I can help care for their babies and them better. Thank you so much for sharing! I will be praying for your baby :)

[shaniacockerham]

He seriously looks soooo healthy for being born so early! That’s incredible and such a gift!

[yolifriesen]

Being someone who really wants a baby someday but also struggles with health anxiety, it's terrifying for me to think about all the things that can come with pregnancy, things that are out of my control. Hearing your story is sad but also so so encouraging, because even with all the hard times and seemingly impossible times, something absolutely beautiful came out of it and that's amazing! You've got a whole support team here, and we stand and pray with you!

I found your channel in 2020, after I had just had a baby. It’s sweet to see you become a Mom now. I can’t imagine how hard this video was to make. I’m praying for you, Xander, and your son 💕

[savannahhlynn]

I was a NICU baby. 26 weeks, 1 lb 2 oz. 11 inches long. Now 26 😊 We are fighters. Stay strong mama. Your little one is a fighter ❤️🥰

My son was born in 2020 at 27 weeks and 5 days. This video made me cry it was like reliving the past. I remember when my son wore clothes for the first time. I’m so happy for you that you and your son made it with flying colors! Trust me - before you know it, he’ll be home! One day the NICU will be a distant memory. Love you and your videos.

[khalilahd.]

Oh my goodness I’m a minute in and already crying. I’m just so happy you’re okay I was really worried about you 🥺 I can’t even imagine going through all of this but trust me you’re not biased he is absolutely perfect and I can’t wait until you guys can bring him home. always praying for you and you’re family 🙏🏽

My daughter was born at 27 weeks 6 days at 2lbs 10oz. Following NICU Instagram pages helped me a lot as well. Seeing her strength and progress in the NICU and beyond is so awe inspiring as well as the nurses and doctors that took care of her and all babies in the NICU. Sending you love to you and your family.
