Hi girls....
I'm a 1st time mom of a 11wk old baby girl. Her name is Zoey Lynn. We have had such a rough road since she was born. I almost died after having her from hemorrhaging, I get home and not 24 hrs later she goes in the hospital for jaundice for a night, 3wks after that she goes back in the hospital for a week with a UTI, 3 wks after that they tell me that her bones in her skull fused together and her brain will not grow correctly, which we found out was misdiagnosed due to the X-ray being read wrong....She has a kidney scan next Friday to be sure her kidneys are ok. I guess UTI's are rare in infants so they have to do this scan to be sure everything is ok. I'm so darn sick of Dr's I could scream... I just want everything to be normal so we can enjoy our life. Out of the 11wks I was on maternity leave only 1 week was Dr. & hospital free.... I wanted to join a group that others might be going through something similar and can give advice or at least talk to people so I can see there is some sort of normal in our near future.....
