Details about Jacob

Around day two Jacob started not breathing right. They took him to the NICU and hooked him up to some machines. Memories from Brendon came back and I bawled all day! My eyes were so swollen and puffy it took more than a day for them to go down. The pediatrician determined that the problem was not the lungs, but something higher. She called in an ENT doctor. Jacob had gunk from birth crusted over both sides of his nasal airway. The dr dug it out but now it’s a giant scab in his nose so it keeps blocking his airway. It’s not as bad as the first time because I’ve been able to keep one side open but we will have to make trips to North Platte to have the ENT look at him. As I’ve said before, “What would one of my pregnancies be without a little drama?”
