Thanks, Darby.

thread drift:
My grandson is a miracle child...he was born 10 weeks early, after 10 weeks of fighting to stay alive with very little amniotic fluid to float around in. He weighed just two pounds 14 ounces at birth. We were worried about his limbs being deformed and lots of other things that happen to preemies, but none of them did! I am very proud of his mother, who spent those 10 weeks in the hospital with her feet up in the air, trying to keep as much amniotic fluid in as possible, all while her husband (my son) was serving in Iraq. The baby should have been born when her water broke, but somehow he wasn't, and we're all so glad! props to the March of Dimes, the hospital, and everyone else involved, and mostly my DIL, whose sheer willpower is amazing.

http://www.kanalen.org/prom/stories....ory&showid=589 Here's a link to my daughter-in-law's premature rupture of membranes story. She and I found this site at the same time during that first week, and although not much is known about PROM, it was very comforting to read about it during those first few weeks when everything was critical. I like to spread the link because you never know when someone might need that information.

And just because I am one of those annoyingly proud gramma's, here's a more recent picture of the little stinker.
