My baby turns 3 today

Tweet

A bit of background info - I have two daughters ages 13 and 16 and my son who turns 3 today. My pregnancy with my girls were generally fine (horrible morning sickness with my first but no major issues). My pregnancy with my son was horrible. I had something happening with my kidneys (which was never diagnosed) that kept me in the hospital one week a month for the first 4 months. Then I went into labor at 25 weeks. They gave me drugs and put me in the hospital until he was born at 29 weeks. He spent 7 weeks in the NICu before coming home. He is delayed in all areas (heck he only learned how to walk on his own in mid February). But he is my miracle baby. I think of suing the first doctors to care for me because I had cervical surgery after my second and told them that the doctor who did it told me any more pregnancy would be delivered early. They could have put a few stitches in my cervix that could have prevented the premature birth. Ok so I have gone off topic. Anyway I am thrilled to be celebrating his 3rd birthday. Here is the crazy part I still want another baby. There are so many reasons that I shouldn't but it doesn't stop the wanting. So I am opening this discussion to anyone who has had difficult pregnancies or preemies or anything similar. If you are someone who hasn't had any of these situations you are free to add comments too!
