Introduction

Our sons Charles George Fitzpatrick and Henry Michael Fitzpatrick were born prematurely on November 16, 2013 at a gestational age of 24 weeks and 1 day. Their "due date" was March 7th, 2014. We started this site on November 28th.

Both Aly and David will be posting to the site. While you will probably be able to tell who is writing by our writing styles, we will sign off on our entries with our initials so you will be sure of the author.

Get Well Soon

We had a lovely day with the boys today. It was mostly a Charlie day because Henry got a dose of pain killer at 6am and spent most of the day semi-conscious. We have high hopes for Henry this week - we are really hoping that the surgery helped him. To get it recorded for them, I really need to remember to write about how that went.

Charlie entertained us all day. When we arrived he was fussy and his nurse was trying a cuddle to see if it would help. Aly then I tried the same tactic. He wasn't properly settled until he had a bottle. You see? Real baby problems! He, basically, got lots of attention all day while Henry rested. It has been 12 days since his surgery and I can't believe how well it has gone.
