So we have had a mental few months, I had a baby who was prem and in NICU she is doing wonderfully well.
Then my DD7 who is a heart transplant patient caught sepsis.
I have an older DS13.
Due to visiting rules I was the only parent allowed with DD1 and DP only parent allowed with DD2.
We were going to be completely split in 2 over xmas and was so worried about DS.

Well today it’s been confirmed that DD2 will be discharged from NICU on Wednesday and DD1 who still requires IV antibiotics is stable enough to go home with them if I train over the next 3 days to give them she can come home on Xmas eve !!!!

It’s a bloody Xmas miracle ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing, enjoy your little Christmas miracle family. Sending you all very best wishes for a lovely Christmas.

Its moments like these when you realise what life is all about, not whether you've got matching crackers to go with your tablecloth.

To the lady her asked . Yep I’ve not seen my newborn since dd was admitted. It was super hard by my DP isn’t my DD1 dad so i was the only person who was allowed with her and we couldn’t mix wards.
Only one parent per child and they wouldn’t allow us to mix.
