Baby Ayman was born March 29th 2010 @ 10:13 a.m. He was almost 5 weeks early due to a placental abruption that I suffered.

Please keep him in your prayers as he is a very sick little boy who is still in the NICU suffering from persistent fetal circulation also known as pulmonary hypertension in newborns. He is fully dependent on a ventilator to supply him with the oxygen that he needs. I would post a pic, but all I have are of him with the ventilator tube and it is just too heartbreaking for me to even share.

I ask again that you keep him in your prayers so that he can hopefully overcome this problem and come home to us soon. We are both grief stricken and need to see some slight improvement in him to give us hope in his recovery.

Thank you all.

Amy-Congrats on the new little one! Honey, I'm so happy for you, I suffered a placenta abruption over 21 years ago and my little guy died. He was 6.5 weeks early and the only reason they could give me was there was a virus in the placenta. Not the fact that he had tried coming 2 times before that and they stopped the labor each time....

I will definalty keep baby Ayman in my prayers. God will be there and he will be home soon. I am sure that given time, he will gain the strength he needs to be home with his loving family.

Congratulations on the birth of your son. I am so sorry he is ill and my heart goes out to you. I know that you are so worried right now. You, your family, and baby Ayman are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope he continues to improve and can be removed from the ventilator soon. As soon as he is and you are able to hold him, I look forward to seeing a picture of your new baby boy.

I'll be thinking of you and your little one. I know this must be a very difficult time for you. I was on bedrest during my pregnancy with Adam due to a placental abruption at 25 weeks. We are so fortunate that he stayed put to term. I was so frightened of the scenario you're facing now. Best wishes for little Ayman!

Congratulations on the little package, my dear! I am very sorry to hear about his condition. Insh'Allah he will be home soon. I will keep your family in my prayers!

I've never had a baby before or have any idea how it goes but it sounds like you are very worried for Ayman right now. I am sending my best wishes that each day you all see him get stronger.

[Vanessa1 7]

Amy, I am sending my good thoughts and prayers your way that baby Ayman will get stronger quickly and you and your family may have peace in this difficult time.

Baby Ayman and you are in my prayers. God bless him.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. We spent most of the afternoon in the NICU with him and his oxygen has been turned down to 34% from 45 percent yesterday. His ventilator pressure has also came down from 19 to 16. All we can do is hope and pray that he will continue moving in a positive direction.

Terrie, I'm so sorry to hear about you losing your baby. I had never heard of a placental abruption until it happened to me. Thank God that I was at my doctors office when it happened. I was getting an ultrasound done and sat up on the table and just started hemorrhaging. Every doctor and nurse told me that had I been at home or out shopping, etc. that he probably would not be with us at all. So I think of it as a miracle.

Thanks again to everyone for your thoughts and prayers. Hopefullly they will keep moving him to recovery.

Thank you so much. I have never been able to hold him. I've never even heard him cry. I did get to touch his foot today and to kiss his forehead. It just absolutely made my day.

This is indeed a miracle baby. May he continue to make strides and one day soon incha Allah he will be home. I can imagine how hard it is to not be able to hold him. And you will soon. You are very lucky you were at the doctors when this happened. I was on my way to the hosptial when mine happened and I can show you the exact spot of where we were when it happened. The first thing out of the doctor's mouth to me was do u do drugs? I was devestated. and shocked needless to say. You and your family are in my prayers and heart. Let us know how he does. Hugs to you also.

Amy,

I am already praying for Ayman.

It sounds like he is moving in the right direction, I am sure this is so terribly hard right now and I am praying that one day soon you will be holding your healthy baby in your arms and this will all become a memory.

Hang in there!

[sandinista! 1,816]

ohh, amy, i am so sorry to hear that. my thoughts and prayers are with your family too right now.

Amy, congrats to you for your new son, we are praying for him to get better soon. Our daughter was in NICU and had to be on oxygen and insulin and a slew of other stuff- I know how hard it is to leave your baby in NICU after visiting.. Try to talk to some of the other parents there, and maybe a support group at the hospital.. I did, and it really helped
