What an example in strength and resilience baby girl's getting from her mom. I wish the example wasn't necessary, but since the challenge is here uninvited: you both are rising to it with grace. May treatment side effects be as minimal and the succes be as great as possible. Rooting for you both!

I'm a Neonatal nurse. Your baby is now at some risk of picking up an infection. There are viruses' and bacteria in Hospital Units , even coming through the heating/ air conditioning systems. That's just the way it is. A fact of life in every single Hospital environment and Ward and, indeed, everywhere we go outside too .They decided delivery was the best route for her, at her current size and gestation, so she wasn't affected by chemotherapy drugs in any way. In balance, that WAS the best thing to do for her! NOW they have to treat , and protect her, as if she were still in your womb . Meaning, (1) supporting her to develop her feeding reflexes, ( that CANNOT BE TAUGHT) It will develop in your baby's own time and is often 1 step forward and 1step back. It takes patience on the part of the parents! (2) To maintain her temperature within normal range. (3), To try to prevent infection when handled....so, you need to be gowned up, if that's your particular Hospitals' policy for Neonates. Also, and very importantly, patients receiving Chemotherapy have a very reduced Immune System so are at considerable risk of getting Infections. The gowns may well be necessary to protect YOU from picking up an infection. There is so much that is normal and routine to us, as Staff who are experienced and know about Neonatal Care Or Oncological Care. Ask THEM about the many things you don't understand, rather than questioning it on your Vlogs . That way you'll, hopefully, gain more knowledge and peace of mind , regarding you and your daughter's care. You need to learn to question more as you've got a long journey ahead. Not questioning your symptoms, in exactly the same way, actually delayed your diagnosis. You need to know how to advocate for your own body, and learn what/why things are happening around you. I hope you're able to rest and sleep really well, and that the remainder of your Chemo is as comfortable as possible for you. Hope your baby is soon thriving and beginning to regain her weight.( It's normal for babies to lose weight, then regain it again)

I too am going through Chemo, I have been fortunate to have slight side effects so far, I am single but feel I am blessed to have a family and friends support system, don't know what I would do without them. You are doing great with sharing your experiences it is helpful to hear others going through similar situations. Prayers lifted for you and your family.

I'm sorry you've also joined the cancerstyle club. I'm terminal, spinal cancer and fractured vertebrae and sternum. Bone cancer with mets galore t/out my body. Please take comfort in knowing you are not alone. The cancerstyle (lifestyle) is full on with good and bad days. If you need to cry, cry. If you need help, reach out, help in the support has been extremely challenging for me as I'm socially isolated so I have that extra challenge but going onto antidepressant and valium for anxiety have helped me a lot. I keep you and your family in my prayers 🙏❤🇦🇺🌻

Many cancer journey videos I’m following, please stay positive one persons journey has been not at all like they said it would be at all, they told her she had a year to live and that can’t ever be a sure thing because God decides that not Science or Doctors.

Her mother had a medical emergency that was the reason for early delivery and she was not able to care for the baby until she was well. That baby is now a very healthy 24 yo teacher. I pray for your healing and for your doctors to make the right decisions. God bless.

Chemo is accumulative, so the more cycles the more concentrated are the side effects. Congrats on your baby daughter, not easy to be apart from her especially going through cancer treatment but inbetween infusions is a good compromise. You are very brave and strong so you will get through this! Take care, always eat, you need food for energy.

It's scary seeing anyone have to go thru this, esp someone as wonderful as you. I am tho, really really glad that baby girl is showing her strength. Maybe her strength can help make you stronger so you can beat the heck out of this nasty disease. Remember to always take lots of pictures; just for a worse case scenario, so babygirl can see how strong you were for her and the rest of your family. Watching it more - its so relieving to hear that your husband is being strong and supportive throughout this whole ordeal!!! We are all here with you. ❤❤❤ Sending you much love Edit- do you have a gofundme or something so followers can help donate to cover any costs you might be facing currently???

Hang in there beautiful and congratulations on the birth of your baby girl. Melanie, my brother is doing chemo. The doctors told him during chemo and a few days after treatment, not to drink, eat or touch anything cold. He is not even to get anything out of the refrigerator without wearing a protective glive to keep his skin from making contact with cold objects to prevent neuropathy. Please ask your doctors and nurses if you should be using icepacks or drinking and eating cold things. It is known as Chemo Induced Peripheral Neuropathy or CIPN.
@melaniefostersnavely
@melaniefostersnavely Жыл бұрын
Hmmm, I will ask about that. I was told to use the cold packs to prevent the neuropathy. Maybe it depends on which drugs they are using for your chemo 🤷‍♀️ I was told to keep the cold on throughout the two first drugs that are part of my cocktail as it keeps the nerves from getting affected. but I will definitely double check on that! Thank you. So sorry to hear your bother is battling as well.

When I was with my best friend a few years ago as she went through chemo the one thing we found that worked to mitigate mouth sores was keeping ice chips in her mouth during chemo treatment. Prayers, Denise

Thank you Denise, someone else said the same thing so we got a nugget ice maker for the house (I’m home on a pump infusion for the next 5 days) and I’m going to be an ice fein all day.

Yep, she’s here and she’s doing so good. She was in the Nicu for two weeks but we’re both home and she’s so strong. Her name is Andileigh.

It is so wonderful to hear about your baby and how well she is doing. Think of the chemo as the healing potion it is. It will allow you to spend the rest of your life loving your miracle child and being returned back to health. You are so much stronger than you give yourself credit for being. Stay strong!

Congratulations on baby girl❤ I am incredibly sorry your motherhood journey has to start out like this. I just wanted to send a virtual hug as I have no keen advice but just want to say you are not alone, will be right here by your side as you kick cancers ass! I want you to fight like a duck! You might wonder about that statement. Well you can be like a stone being thrown and sinking to the bottom wollering around at the bottom of life or you can be like a duck and no matter what you do to the duck they rise to the top of the water, so rise up to this challenge and fight like a duck! Nothing can sink you sweet girl, you got this 💪🫂🙏❤
