Many of the families I follow have lost a baby. Some of them try again while others do not. What they all have in common is the fear of going through it again, especially if they have had preeclampsia. The risks includes the mother as well as the baby. Jamie is a woman who is facing the risks again. She and her husband lost their baby boy Vincent at 22 weeks due to preeclampsia. They decided to try again and are currently 30 weeks pregnant with a second little boy. Jamie has been fighting the beginning symptoms of PE as well as gestational diabetes for a number of weeks now. She was again admitted to the hospital last night with likely PE. The doctors are hoping they can hold out a few more weeks, but must carefully balance Jamie's health as well as the baby's. Please send her some good vibes.

Tomorrow will be the final post on the subject of premature birth. You should check it out because you will meet the bravest family I have ever seen. Their story is the fist one I came across after Bennett and I return again and again to silently cheer them on.
