A friend of mine had her baby monday at 1;17am weighing 2lb 6oz, 13in via emergancy c-section. Baby was born at 32wks gestation, he is now in the nicu and dr are running test because they think he may have blood in his stomache. Can everyone please say a prayer for my friend and her baby boy. She needs all the prayers she can get. They have the baby on a feeding tube, oxygen, under lights for jaundice, i can't imagine what she is going through, but I know its got to be very hard,

Well they are letting mom go from the hospital, The ronald mc donald fund/house thing is going to give her and daddy a place to stay until baby can come home. They took baby of the ventilator and he is doing a bit better, Things are looking better. Prayers are appreciated by the family as well as by me.

Baby is doing better, is just on oxygen and they have started feeding him and his feedings are going good. If he can gain the weight and get off the oxygen he can go home. They've attempted to lower his oxygen and he was having issues breathing without it.
