Elisabetta Fantone Instagram – This is a different birth story, one that I could’ve never anticipated. One that tested my faith and character. One that ripped me from living a full pregnancy. One that robbed me from a beautiful birth I was so eager to experiance once more. A beautiful birth that he too deserved, a europhic experiance just like I lived with my first child. One that I promised my daughter she would witness because I wanted her to see just how beautiful birth should be. I felt cheated and deprived of all the things a mother should experience when bringing a child into the world. I felt anger, shame, guilt and a profound grief because it was all out of my control and there was no going back. Because I had questions left unanswered, because somehow I felt like I failed him, the last six months have been the hardest months of my existence. I’ve shed more tears than in my entire life. A mighty warrior grew inside of me and he turned me into one too. Born at 28 weeks and weighting a mere 2.1 pounds, our boy has been fighting the big fight and he’s been winning. His purpose is big and his mission is of first importance. He’s just a fighter eager to get started. #nicu #nicubabies #nicubaby #preemie #nicuparents #preemiebaby #preemiestrong #28weekspreemie
