I’ve never written a comment on a blog, let alone read a blog, so probably I am not writing to you at all but am instead broadcasting to the world. A friend sent me your blog address and I just read it thoroughly for the first time. I had my baby boy in an emergency c-section at 27 weeks on February 9th. It is amazing to read about experiences so close to mine, and also in “real time” with mine. Maybe this kind of connectedness happens all the time in blogworld and I need to catch up so I can take this kind of connection for granted. But right now I am blown away by it and so grateful for your generosity with your story and your wonderful writing. Your letter to Simone brought me to tears.
Alexa, I know you have your hands full with Simone, but the girl at the following link is looking for advice after delivering her son at 24 or so weeks yesterday.
Not sure if you were able to help her but thought I would attempt to make the connection.
•Aveeno Positively radiant daily cleansing pads No time for face wash, and they beat the hell out of baby wipes.
•Burt's Bees Honey Lip Balm I generally find lip balms that come in tubes to be too dry for my taste, but this is the exception. I scatter them around the house because I lose them easily.
