Praise the Lord! A newborn to be raised with Christ

Post by domokunrox »

My firstborn Alexandra Genesis was born on December 15 @ 0851
She was born 3 lbs, 8 ounces and 15.5" long.

Her first week of life so far has been in the hospital taking care of her apnea. She has now been able to breathe on her own, and now their are working on her feeding and body temperature before she is sent home.

It is difficult to have a child that still needs care, but we have faith the Lord will have hand in her health. It is difficult to put into words the happiness she brings in our lives.

Thank you Lord for everything in our lives. You are so amazing. Me and my household, we will serve the Lord!

Congrats Dom, the Lord has blessed you abundantly.
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.

Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.

Congratulations Dom. Sorry that you're having this joy tempered with the medical needs but thank God they are there and can contribute toward preserving the health and well-being of your precious child.

Sincere congratulations. :)

1Tim1:15-17
Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever.Amen.

Thank you all for the prayers.

She is doing well. Still in the intensive care unit, but she's progressed so much.
No more IV, no more heated bed.

She still has the feeding tube in the nostril. The last step we have before my wife and I bring her home is feeding. We want to make sure she is strong enough to feed without getting too tired and miserable. Again, thank you all for the prayers. Its very comforting.

Thank guys. An update. My daughter is home now. Eating and doing well. Gave me a scare last night. Couldn't get her to stop crying. She wanted mommy really bad or bad dream. Got her to calm down tho. All is well tho. We're going to enjoy holding her while she wants to be held.
