Shit again. Email at tashabf at gmail if you need anything. Or need to vent. Or just need to get out everything going on. Keep pumping. Take no prisoners. Motherfuck, I’m so pissed and depressed right now. Thinking of you all.

Oh, Becks. Damn it.

I wish I could do something more than offer my very hardest prayers. But that’s all I have right now because I’m so far away. However, if you need to talk, add me to your e-mail chain.

Thinking of you and sweet Amelia. Hang in.

Being in NICU sucks, but damn if they don’t know a whole lot of ways to help babies.
On January 29th, 2009 at 2:46 pm Rachel Says:
Oh, I’m so sorry. I hope your stay in the NICU is a short one and you are both home soon. The NICU is a wonderful place, but I wouldn’t want to go back there.
Praying for good news soon.

Stay positive. I was in the NICU for 6+ weeks with Maggie, and a good part of her life for the next 3 years. But she’s the most fabulous thing ever right now! If being in the NICU was the price for being with her now, I’d do it again in a heartbeat! Hang in there!

Here’s hoping and praying your little girl is going to be just fine, and this will be one of those scary moments that will become part of the lore of her birth story. This sucks, and I am so sorry.
On January 29th, 2009 at 3:02 pm Mrs.Spit Says:

On January 29th, 2009 at 3:12 pm Stefanie Says:
Hey hon! I’m sure it’s going to be just fine. Not that that makes anything having to do with your newborn daughter less scary. I had a cyst on my neck when i was first born (fluid filled) it had to be drained but I was fine as wine. Speaking of wine, have the Daver bring you some!!!

Love you!
On January 29th, 2009 at 3:13 pm trish Says:
Oh, fuck, Becky. If I lived near you, I’d go out right now, get some Ben & Jerry’s Brownie Batter ice cream (it’s the shiz) and come sit with you. That’s what I would do.
On January 29th, 2009 at 3:15 pm Fiddle1 Says:

On January 29th, 2009 at 3:34 pm Dot Says:
Ditto, ditto, ditto. Hang on and keep us posted. (hugs)
On January 29th, 2009 at 3:35 pm Dot Says:
PS – Ask the hospital if they have counselors for support through things like this. Ask them for anything you need. They should have been through this before and be prepared to help the parents, not just the child.
On January 29th, 2009 at 3:39 pm andria Says:
Fuck.

I’m praying for her hard friend.
On January 29th, 2009 at 3:46 pm Marie Says:
I am sending up prayers lately, Becky. I promise I include you. These little critters really keep us on our toes. We should blame the fathers.

I hope everything is ok with Amelia.
On January 29th, 2009 at 4:09 pm magpie Says:

On January 29th, 2009 at 5:36 pm Coco Says:
I know I keep posting all over the place.

I’m just thinking of you every second, hon, and praying as hard as I ever have for all of you.

Wee Amelia, I know you’re a fighter. Stay strong, sweet one.
On January 29th, 2009 at 5:45 pm Ginger Magnolia Says:
Sweetie, I am praying so hard for you and Amelia. Lean on each other, babe. We all love you.
On January 29th, 2009 at 5:51 pm Nyx Says:
You can do this. The NICU is there to give the best possible care to neonates. Try not to feel too helpless. You are doing the hardest job in the world, in the hardest way. I hope for a short(very)uneventful visit to the NICU.
On January 29th, 2009 at 5:55 pm rebekah Says:
Double fuck. Thinking all the positive woo-woo poo in the universe for you.
On January 29th, 2009 at 5:58 pm Rachael Says:
I hope it’s nothing. I’ll be praying for you and your baby.
On January 29th, 2009 at 6:15 pm Kendra Says:
Oh, NICU is such a rotten way to start your life. But I’m grateful they’re there. My niece was in NICU for the first few terrifying days, but she’s a healthy 18-month-old handful now. I’m so sorry. I’ll be thinking of all of you.
On January 29th, 2009 at 6:18 pm Edward Says:
I am keepingmy fingers and toes crossed. I will say a prayer that your little girlis o.k. I will be wishing you ALL the absolute best and calming vibes coming your way.
On January 29th, 2009 at 6:28 pm J Says:
I wish there were anything we internet stalkers could do for you except stalk your website more frequently seeking updates. I am sorry that you’re going through something so scary right now.
On January 29th, 2009 at 6:31 pm KT Says:
Oh no. Stay strong!!! I’m thinking of you and your babe.
On January 29th, 2009 at 6:38 pm SciFi Dad Says:
Fuck fuck fuckity fuck!

We did the NICU thing… not fun.

I’ll have a good thought.
On January 29th, 2009 at 6:49 pm Mrs G Says:
Oh, I know how you feel, we did 36 hours of it after Xav’s birth. I know it is a terrible time and I can only say that I feel for you and am wishing you all the best.

Praying for Amelia and your family.
On January 29th, 2009 at 7:12 pm Collette Says:
Fuck indeed. I’ll keep you in my thoughts. We spent some time there after Payton was born. Just know she is getting the best care possible.
On January 29th, 2009 at 7:16 pm Heather Says:
OMG I’m SOO sorry!! I will be thinking of you and sending good healing vibes your way!!
On January 29th, 2009 at 7:29 pm Cricket Says:
First, congrats on your daughter’s arrival! Second, so sorry about the snag. I hope it is temporary and you’ll be back to bitching soon.
On January 29th, 2009 at 7:34 pm Heather Says:
Crap. I still remain convinced it will be NOTHING… and in the meantime I am praying, sacrificing to various gods, and doing whatever else it takes to hear good news from you soon! Hugs to Amelia!

On January 29th, 2009 at 7:56 pm Holly Says:
Becky I am here. Sara and I were talking today…about our daughters who spent time in the NICU. They both have become (or always were) stubborn turds and well they are strong ass little mama’s. I am thinking of you and baby girl. *MUAH*
On January 29th, 2009 at 8:09 pm Sandy Says:
If she is anything like her mama, she will be just fine and home in a day or two. I just know it. I’m not discounting your worry though, by all means, worry away, because I’d be an asshole if I told you something assinine like “relax” – I hate that word. But I lurve you and I can’t wait until the both of you get home.
On January 29th, 2009 at 8:31 pm anonamommy Says:
I am keeping you and Amelia in my thoughts. Hoping you guys have a short NICU visit and are home soon.

Oh, I’m so sorry about where you’re at — I came by to check on Amelia’s arrival, and found this. Thinking of you all and hope all will be OK.
