Back to mylot after two years

In the past two years, there were two big changes in my life. One was I got married. Second, I had my first baby early this month even though it was expected to be confined in March. When I looked back to those hard moments, I felt depressed. My baby didn't pass the hearing tests. The jaundice is more serious than other normal term infants. Low weight and a patent ductus arteriosus. I often felt guilty at the first few days and usually sobbed when I was being alone in the sick room. I felt so sorry and powerless for not protecting well to my baby, making her a premature baby. I knew that I need to keep a good mood, but I can't. Every time I thought of my poor baby girl, I can't help to feel guilty. Postpartum depression I may got, I think. I DID try to be more positive but failed all the time, Although the days were tough, they were part of my life. I accepted.

Has your baby got permanent damage? Please realise that your baby being premature was not your fault, it was out of your control.

Welcome back, and sorry your baby has issues. You may want to strike up a friendship with Shanny Bannany, she has a baby too, who has some health challenges.

It's good to have you back in our lives (I don't know if there's a 'hug'-emoji, but There you go ) Know that you're in all our prayers, and we have faith that your decisions are the best (for the premature blessing's hearing & health, for your family, for your community, and for yourself).
