It took me a couple of months to post this episode. For many reasons. One, I have my hands full with a newborn and because he was born a micro preemie, we have been in the newborn phase for 6 months. Two, I didn't think I was emotionally prepared to handle any negative responses. I was too raw. But I'm ready now.
I am ready because today, Matty weighs 16 pounds. We have been able to wean down from 3 doctor's appointments a week to the more routine check ups and I feel like my chest pain is getting quieter, making room for more joy.
So here is my story. Our story. His story.
