NICU

Miles stayed in the NICU for a week. Jamilah drove to the hospital, 30 min. away, every day. It was very difficult to leave the baby at the hospital.

Before you can go in and see your baby you have to scrub your hands and arms for 3 min. and then you put a hospital gown over your clothes.

Children under 16 yrs. were not allowed in, so Bryson got to see his baby brother for the first time through the window.

Our new arrival

Our little guy just couldn't wait any longer. He arrived 6 weeks early. Jamilah's water broke at 33 weeks and was kept in the hospital, on bed rest, for a week. Then at 34 weeks labor was induced and Miles was born.
