The adventures of tader baby: the tader tot

Some pictures of the tader tot at 28 weeks. He looks like Summy in the eyes and nose, (and has his ginormous head) and looks a lot like Jack in the lips/chin. (And has his super long legs and fingers.)

He's measuring big... like they estimated 3 lbs 4 oz. Eek.

The story of how the tader tots came to be

When I started this blog, I originally thought it was going to be a taderbaby...we chose the nickname after the delicious spuds served at Young's Jersey Dairy...but quickly found out it was tader tots! At 28 weeks gestation my placenta started abrupting and I was briefly hospitalized, then put on strict bedrest. At 31w 4d I was let up for an hour a day. At 32w on the dot, I was re-admitted for bleeding and began a four day fight to stop labor which I lost on 2.15.07 when Jack's placenta abrupted fully. If I hadn't been at the hospital, we wouldn't have made it. Upon birth, Jack's apgar was 3. The boys spent 4 weeks in NICU and this is their story, and mine.
