Amelia Jane Peralta

Well, she's here! She was born on Aug. 15th at 7:56 a.m. by c-section. She weighed 7 lb. 5 oz. and 20 and 3/4 in. long. The bad news is that she has been in the N.I.C.U. since she was born. I don't have time to go into details right now, but there were breathing problems, apnea problems, and infection problems. She is improving little by little. I have been spending most my time in the NICU everyday for her feedings. It's been extremely hard since I'm still trying to recover. I got out of the hospital on Monday the 18th. Things are going ok with me, I'm still in a deal of pain, so I'm trying to make sure I don't over do it. The doctor seems hopeful that we will be able to take her home this coming Sunday. We are crossing our fingers that our family will be all together again. Thanks for all the support, love and prayers. We appreciate everything. Continue to keep us in your prayers. We love you all . I gotta go back to the NICU right now. Take care. I'll post more when she's home.

P.S. She's all Mike!

She is absolutely adorable. She has got the most adorable chubby cheeks I have ever seen. Its about time Mike got a child that looks like him!! hahaha. I know a little what you are going through; Jake was in the NICU for 4 days, and it was so hard, but I knew that he was getting the best care posssible. Stick in there before you know it she will be walking. Good luck with everything and congratulations.

Congratulations!!! What a beautiful little girl. I love the name Amelia. It's so sweet. Our prayers are with all of you. Mira was in the NICU for 7 days for breathing problems, pnemonia and jaundice. She pulled through pretty quick. I bet Ameila will too.

Hey Congrats! she is a cutie! I know what it's like to go to the NICU everyday, when Khloe was born (10 weeks early), I trecked up to the hospital everyday. She was there 6 weeks, it was LONG 6 weeks. But I was so grateful to the doctors and nurses for taking care of her. She's a beauty! Hang in there, Sunday will come fast!
