The bandage you had is called a PICO dressing. They're used after c-sections and other surgeries for negative pressure wound therapy. Basically it's a little vaccuum that promotes blood flow to the surgical incision and removes any drainage from the wound so the skin doesn't break down. We use them on our hip and knee surgery patients occasionally :) they're pretty freaking cool!

I had both my kids with a c-section. They were not preemies tho. My son was 2 weeks overdue and almost 11lbs! This was 30 years ago. Things are a lot different. It’s nice ( I think) that you get to (have to?) stay in the hospital till the baby goes home. Not familiar with this tho. It’s great to be so close to her and not just have to visit every day. God bless and I look forward to more videos.

I had a C-section at 36+4 weeks. My water broke at 7am and baby girl was breech entire pregnancy! It’s interesting how every place is different. I didn’t get a bandage like that. I think I got a gauze placed over it and a nurse removed it 24hrs later.. I was also stitched up from inside (?) so only one tiny piece of thread showed at the end and they dissolved.

Oh my goodness! I literally cried with you through this video, I had twins in September and they had to stay in the nicu, that first time we came home empty handed was soooo sad and emotional, I tried to take a nap cause I was so tired and I could “hear” my babies crying (but there was no babies) it was so sad! They’re almost 6 months now and they only stayed in the nicu for 2.5 weeks but I know the feeling!
@victoriamccullough35704 жыл бұрын
Oh those cameras in the NICU. The first room she was in the camera was broke for like a month. And then soo many nurses and doctors everytime they touched her they had to move it and never put it back. Was soo hard because I was off for 2 months but then I had to go back to work. I know the feeling having to leave and feeling guilt. So rough. Can't wait to see her more in the future videos!! My dad used to faint in public because of his medicine was horrible. Thank goodness they changed it.

Yes, thankfully one of the nurses taught us how to make sure the camera was back on every time we left the NICU! Aww that is definitely hard!! Omg that's not good! Pretty sure that would've been me if I had taken that much longer, but thankfully I'm not on it anymore! ;)

This reminds me of our first baby boy.. I had 8 miscarriages including our 2yr olds twin and the rest was a highrisk pregnancy so I had an emergency C section at 159am and he went straight to the NICU for a while.. it was. So hard and emotional not getting to hold him and see him on so many monitors and IV lines! He is so healthy and amazing and we have our 7month old baby boy too and it was a planned C section and we got to hold him first before he was taken to the NICU also!! It's so different starting life that way but it's so amazing being a family :)
