A 0-year-old boy.
Noah is our first born. He was born @ 40weeks 2days, day before our induction day. Amazing labor and delivery.
Noah was 7lbs 9oz and 20in long @ birth @ 11:20pm at night.
Perfect and sweet. Was a great eater and hardly ever cried. At about 1day 8hours old, and the day we were supposed to head home, day before Thanksgiving, Noah started to show signs something might not be right. He was in the nursery when this happened, and was noted that he went Very Pale, Anterior Fontanel was full in upright position, heart rate dropped and noted murmur. Then hours after, he started to not eat well, then a few hours later, just basically stopped eating and forgot how to suck, and hours later started to have seizures.
So we were in the NICU for 5days after all this. Finally found out with the CT scan, that he had a large brain hemorrhage in the front right lobe. Thankfully it was on the right side, and not the left as we wouldnt be in the same position of a perfect child right now.
The brain is an AMAZING thing, especially in a newborn with something going wrong. The other parts can compensate for whats been damaged and gone (which is about a 1/4 of the right side of his brain).
He is smart as can be and perfect. Shows no signs of anything going wrong. He started crawling @ 7mths, and cruising @ 8mths, been gibber gabbering since 5-6months, and is just so funny! Just amazing!!
I pray everyone can have such an amazing child, as we have in Noah, we are truely blessed!!!
Lots of love and best wishes to all!
