About Carly and Sarah3 years ago

Over the past three years it has been flipped upside down. I am 31 years old, and married to my hubby of three years, Josh. We have 4 beautiful angel babies, who are fondly known as our “Green Beans”. The first of my quads, Heidi, held on as long as she could and was born on January 31, 2009 after pPROMing at 17 weeks. A few weeks later, I pPROM’d with my sweet Lily. Lily, Paige, and Rylan were all born at 22 weeks on February 23, 2009. Just after being released from the hospital empty handed, I returned with a high fever and infection. Two of the nights I spent in the hospital that week, I honestly thought I was going to die. It was the sickest and most hopeless I’ve ever been. I’m pretty sure my diagnosis was a broken heart.
Our journey to becoming parents has had its share of happiness and heartbreaks. I got through every day by staying close to Josh, friends and family, blogging, and relying on God that my future will be bright. All the love and support I’ve gotten has greatly helped me manage……I am alive and well, and want to be my absolute best as a result of this.
On May 1st 2011, we welcomed our sweet baby girl, Taylor, into this world. She is our miracle baby and brings so much joy and happiness in our lives. She is such a gift from God.
I have come out of all of this with a better appreciation of life. I hope to make the best of this situation by helping others who will experience a similar loss.






















OOHHH Now thats High class Yummy!!!
ReplyDeleteJust to add to the misery of being inverted now choke down to fake slices of cheese:) So sorry Lauren, I will pray for better snacks. I mean I know they want you to have healthy snacks, but a small cookie can't be much worse than yellow cellophane.
ReplyDeleteewwwww
ReplyDeleteWant me to sneak you in a pizza?
Mmmmm cheeseproduct. Funny I thought that was a manila folder at first glance :)
ReplyDeleteI hate to say it, but I had to laugh at the angle of the picture. I am so sorry you have to lay inverted, but I guess it is laugh or cry right? I figure I am laughing with you :)
ReplyDeleteSorry about the fake cheese...do they not realize how many babies your trying to feed? Tell them to bring the whole cow next time. Then you can have some milk, make your own REAL cheese and have a T-bone afterward :)
Hang in there sweetie - you are doing great.

Well if that was all they were bringing they could have at least brought the fake cheese in a can :) At least it would have been more fun.
ReplyDeleteAnd seriously did you laugh at them when they dropped it off?
Lame. Even Weight Watchers lets me have better snacks! Mail me a wish list and I'll send you a care package. What snacks are the babies craving?
ReplyDeleteNo crackers?!
ReplyDeleteewww! Pregnant or not, I don't think "hospital packed cheese" would be high on my list! :(
ReplyDeleteI hope you can have something good and tasty soon!
Ugh...yucky! I'm so sorry! That stinks.
ReplyDeleteNow that's just wrong. :)
ReplyDeletehey ive been following your blog very closely . i live in orlando , if i lived closer i would bring you some beter snacks, hee hee . keep up the good work , your in my prays , that you will be able to make it to at least 28 weeks .
