Surreal Day......this can't be happening again.....
 
When Huey was born at 27 weeks gestation my world changed forever. We faught to survive for 3 months in the NICU right there with him.

Today, He is my best friend.

I find myself here again. My wife Chelle is only 30 weeks into our pregnancy and we have been admitted into Labor and Delivery.

Terrified doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of what is going thru my mind right now.

I am in disbelief and limbo at the same time. At what point does your love for your unborn child need to turn into the need to protect your wife?

How do I look at her as just an organism that is hurting Chelle?

A paernts love for his child vs. A husbands love for his wife............

I haven't talked to Chelle about my feelings or the horrible scenarios going thru my mind......if any of you reading this know her. Please never mention it.

This isn't the place to talk about such things, but I can't find the hispital priest right now.

X2. Go find another priest or someone to talk too.

Call if you want to talk.

jchief 06-26-2013 01:54 PM

And don't jump to conclusions. Just because things happened once doesn't necessarily mean it will happen again.

aquaholic 06-26-2013 01:58 PM

Praying for you. Have been in similar situation and hard to see through troubles to see Gods love for you and your family. Keep your faith and keep putting one foot in front of the other. God has a plan for you and your family!!

Goooh 06-26-2013 01:58 PM

We have lost 2 that way and all I could do was put it in the hands of God and Doctor.

I truly feel empathize buddy, and I'm not good at empathizing at all...

There are 2 ways that these things change people, since it happened I am much more at ease in adverse situations and don't let much of anything bother - I'm extremely patient now and feel more at peace, hell not much worse can happen and you just gotta roll with it.

The other change that takes place is pure anger and frustration, this will not do anyone any good. I believe the route you take is in your control.

Keep your head up, this too shall pass and you all will grow as a result, no matter the outcome.

Sorry to hear this.
If you need anything give me a call

BassAssasin 06-26-2013 02:13 PM

Praying for you guys.

FF_T_Warren 06-26-2013 02:14 PM

One word PRAY. He is the creator of all things and his plan is greater than any of ours. On another note. It may not seem like much but 30 weeks is alot different than 27 when it comes to pregnancies.

Top Dawg 06-26-2013 02:14 PM

Terrible. My prayers are with y'all.

"H" 06-26-2013 02:17 PM

Remember The Good Lord is always in control even in the tuffest of times.
Tim I'm praying for you and your family.

"The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a STRONGHOLD in times of trouble.
Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you"....Psalm 9:9-10

Let us know if we can help in any way

Keep you head up

Matt G 06-26-2013 02:23 PM

Sorry to hear this Tim.......... If you need anything don't hesitate to call. You know through our conversation last weekend that I'm not an extremely religious person, but I do turn to prayer in tough times and I will be praying for y'all.

Heavenly Father I ask that you give Tim and Chelle the strength they so desperately need in this time of uncertainty. Amen.

Finfeatherfur 06-26-2013 02:52 PM

Tim - close your eyes.................breath................slowly. .................

Find a place to sit and gather yourself. Then, re-enter Chelle's room and grab her hand. Right now, you need to be there for her and stay positive and focused. As a married couple, she is probably as scared as you are, and she will feed off of your emotions as well. Carry the load for her today and stay strong. Together the both of you will win the battle in the war of life with the help of the big man upstairs.

Now, do you have someone to take care of little man? I am at the office around the corner - do you need me to go? She is at LGMC right?

swamp snorkler 06-26-2013 03:14 PM

Tim I'll be sending good thoughts and prayers to you and your wife. I remember when we was kicking around LAS back in the day and Huey was born. Can't believe he's 7 already. Hope and pray that everything turns out good for you guys!!!!

Dink 06-26-2013 03:35 PM

Thanks guys. A few months ago I planned on this and put things in place so the other kids would be handled just in case.

I am drained. Mom is doing fine of course. Calm as can be.

Contractions are less than 10 minutes apart and they can't stop them as of now.

Still not sure this is good or not. Will be doing ultrasound soon to determine her well being. Good heart rate and stuff, but not sure on her physical development I guess.

There is only one set of footsteps in the sand right now. Hold on tight.

Praying for all of you, Tim.

Dink 06-26-2013 05:16 PM

They are talking about sending us home! I don't understand! Said to monitor it over night. Hiw the **** am I supposed to do that? Contractions aren't changing. Staying at 10min and not intensified. Guess they know what they're talking about? Said she isn't dialating or "thinning out". This emotional roller coaster is ridiculous! I don't understand this at all.........

Loneshark 06-26-2013 05:25 PM

Keep strong. I too remember when Huey was born and I was amazed at your strength. One thing that I have always heard is that girls develop faster than boys. So those three weeks between 27 and 30 is huge. I will keep your family in my prayers.

eman 06-26-2013 05:30 PM

Prayers going out for y'all right now. Monitoring means you stay awake and let her sleep if she can. The lord knows what his plans are and all you can do is have faith and be there for Chelle.

budndawn 06-26-2013 05:38 PM

Stay strong...prayers sent your way

swamp snorkler 06-26-2013 06:46 PM

Dink my wife was ovulated 3 cm's from the 31st week till she had out little boy at 40 weeks. She also had contractions later in her pregnancy that were pretty strong.

Hope , Mom. baby and you and your family all come out of this okay.

4fish 06-26-2013 09:02 PM

Hang in there praying for u guys

Dink 06-26-2013 09:10 PM

Well.....we're home. Not sure what to expect. No water leaking and no dialation so I guess that's good. But contractions continue. I kinda thought contractions meant labor but aftet doing sone reading, that is not neccesarily the case.

Thank uou all fir the texts and messages and prayers. Especially yall that I dony realy know or have met. Means a lot!

Guess this thread can be delete. I feel like the boy that cried wolf here.....

Yep. I've been in here before when my dad went down with a heart attack. He's alive and well now but, I was losing my mind when it happened! So many people here helped bring things into perspective.

Not at all. You reached out to your friends, and we had the chance to stand with you in prayer. God answered and quieted things down. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us again.

leblanc272 06-26-2013 09:57 PM

Been in very similar situation. Pray, and surround yourself with family, and pray. Support your wife as much as possible, as I sure you are. Your family is in our prayers
