How many times can you call a hospital in a 12 hour period?

Is it bad I called 11 times to the hospital during the night? I called every hour on the hour (I'm pumping so I was up anyway) until 8 this morning when we could finally go and visit them. I spent 4 hours there and what felt like forever trying to leave. It took me only an hour to say goodbye this time (yesterday it took almost 3 hours).

The girls are absolutely perfect! Savannah's medications have taken great effect and she is doing a lot better. Olivia's breathing has improved a lot! It's still going to be a while before she (or any of the girls) can come of the ventilator but a little improvement is better then none! Addisyn's surgery to close up her PDA worked wonders and the doctors say her heart murmurs are completely gone! Her apnea is being treated with a medication to stimulate her breathing and her heart rate has stayed up for the past day! It's true . . . God does work miracles!

I'm feeling a bit better, still having my moments but feeling better. I also found a song that speaks a lot to both Gabe and I. It's called "Mountains" by Lonestar. Go watch the song! My sister made me listen to it this morning during one of my moments.

Thank you everyone for the thoughts, prayers and support you have given to our family! There obviously working so please keep them coming!

  1. I am so happy that you are feeling better... I have had two very close friends with 24 week old premies and they said the most important thing was keeping themselves healthy so that they could be there emotionally and physically for their babies. Keep positive...The more days that pass that they are here, and doing well, the better their chances, so praise God for every minute. And...if you want to call 2x an hour all night, that is your perogitive, don't forget, you don't work for the hospital, they work for you, you're the one paying them... :)

  2. Call every time you can. The nurses don't mind I'm sure, and after all, they're your babies and are there for YOU!
    Your tiny girls are REALLY miracles!! :)
