Zoey's Sibling
To start off, the name says it all, Zoey's Sibling. We're trying to give our daughter Zoey McKenzie a sibling, but Zoey's story has a twist. She was born when only 22 weeks 4 days along on Halloween Day (10/31/10) at 3:10pm. Her lung's weren't developed enough to support her breathing so she passed at 3:30pm in my arms. She was 1 lb 8 oz, 11.5 inchs long. She taught us there is a major flaw in my body. I have Incomepent Cervix, which means it cant support the weight and stay close after baby is a certain size. With this, it makes our next pregnancy(s) high risk and needing more medical treatment than normal ones, but we know this risk and are going to face it and give Zoey a sibling.
