Help baby Dominic and family

As you all know from the previous description, I was hospitalized for a month for preeclampsia on 7/15/2015. I have kept updates and hope that everything would go as well as it could but on august 5th at 1pm I began having contractions. I was put on a monitor to watch my contractions and also the babys heart rate. He had a few dips but came back up and my Dr. assured me that she didn't think I was in labor. I was about to start fluids to see if the contractions would calm down but before that could even begin Dominic's heart rate dropped with a contraction below 60bps. I never heard someone run so fast. My Dr. burst in the room with a few other ppl and told me to get on my left side. She was yelling for oxogen and an ultrasound all while comforting me but I knew something was seriously wrong. The called a critical code over the loud speaker of the hospital and before I knew it the room and halls where filled with blue scrubs, nurses and Drs.. Within minutes I was being rushed down the hall and into an operating room. Fearing for my babies life, I kept asking if my baby was ok. I cant remember getting a clear answer until I was on the operating table, getting a spinal. They said his heart rate was stable but they needed to get him it right now because his cord was being constricted with my contractions. I was terrified. He was only 30 weeks and not fully developed. I kept asking for Noel and they didn't bring him in until they began cutting me. He sat by my side and we waited what seemed like an eternity to hear the tiniest cry from our baby. Dominic Saez was born at 2:02pm at 2lbs 5 ounces and 15 inches long.  We cried tears of joy and even though we weren't able to see him, we loved him already. It wasn't until I asked how much longer the process would take so that I could see him, that Noel realized something was going wrong. I began to fade in and out and feel like I was slipping. A half an hour passed and Noel could see the seriousness on the Drs. face and one with a face mask full of blood. I kept telling them I felt tired and all I remember is Noel telling me he was there. I remember getting shots in both of my arms repeatedly and faintly heard them asking for blood for me. I don't remember anything else but Noel later filled me in by telling me they couldn't get my matching blood for 20-40 minutes and the panic on the Drs. faces. He heard them saying I cant stop the bleeding and shortly after that they asked him to step out into the waiting room. At this point I was intubated and bleeding out. Noel sat in the waiting room for 2 hours waiting to hear anything. This poor guy sat there not knowing if his son or wife was going to make it and he was all alone. It breaks my heart knowing he had to go through that and I had no clue how close I was to death. I had lost half of my blood and was given two blood transfusions. 
I woke up in the ICU with no clue what happened. I felt like I had been hit by a truck and lost my sight.For hours Noel sat by my side as I tried to regain conciseness. The next 12 hours were really tough. Worried about my son and being as sick as I was might have been the toughest time in my life. FInding out he was stable and doing well came as a huge relief to me and Noel. The next two days were torture. I wasnt able to go see my baby. I couldn't walk, I couldn't move. I was informed that  my uterus was outside of my body for almost two hours and would contract back down and that i was cut horizontal to open my stomach and my entire uterus was cut vertical to get the baby out. The healing process was much more than a classical c section and with the amount of blood loss, i was in for a long ride. It took me 3 days to be able to see my son and when I did it was so worth it. 

Domininc is doing well now on day 5 and noel and I are home. As good as it feels to be in my own bed, it kills us to have to leave our son there but we know he is in great hands. He is on a ventilator but breathing room air most of the time. He handles everything like a champ and I am so proud of him but it is going to be a long two months. I am also still recovering and haven't regained most of my blood back so I am really weak and sick feeling all day long. 

Thanks to the generosity of people, we have been able to pay our bills for the month I was in the hospital and for most of the days noel missed staying with me. Also thanks to a few generous people, we have gotten a few big things we needed for Dominic but we still have tons of stuff to get and the cost of traveling and missed work is continuing to be an issue. We appreciate any help you can give and any small things from our registry that you can provide. 

Thank you all for your continued support and prayers. 
We are registered at Target under Carly Stinelli and Noel Saez if anyone would like to lend a small helping hand. 







ORIGINAL POST:::::
On July 15th, 27 weeks into Carly's pregnancy, was diagnosed with very early Pre eclampsia. For anyone wondering what this means, It is a disease a woman can get from pregnancy that causes extremely high blood pressure and can ultimately cause, seizures, convultions, liver and kidney failure and much worse. The only cure is delivering the baby but at 28 weeks now, baby Dominic would be so under developed, the drs fear the worst. So Carly and Dominic continues to have to stay in the hospital for up to 6 weeks or more, depending on how sick she gets before they have to deliver him. 

Baby Dominic's Daddy Noel, is working hard to keep the income and bills paid but already see that this is going to be an issue. A lot of the times Noel is needed at the hospital to be by his Fiances side during hard times and proceedures but mounting bills, traveling and parking is making it nearly impossible. 

Baby Dominic also has a big sister named Ava who is very broken by her Mommy being gone. Her world has been thrown upside down and she is struggling with how to cope without mommy being at home to take care of her. She is being cared for by her grandfather, aunt and others but this is only creating more confusion and unstability for her. 

THe biggest financial hurdle besides the bills and traveling is that Ava will be starting school in a few weeks without her mommy being there every morning or after noon. School clothes and school supplies are needed and so is help taking care of her. 

On the other hand, baby Dominics shower had to be canceled and the family has nothing prepaired for him. They are regestered with Target and Toys r us under the names: Carly Stinelli & Noel Saez so any contributes would be so greatfully appriciated. 

Carly is going to need her family through this tough process and they need here. Any donations will help bring them together and help care for Ava and Dominic. 

We pray that  baby Dominic can stay in his mommies belly until 33 weeks or more but the drs are prepaired for anything at this moments. It has been said that Dominic will be born a preemie and will likely have to spend a certain amount of time in the NICU depending on his growth at birth but this also creates a huge finacial hurdle for the family witht the same issues. 

Thank you so much for your time in reading this and for all of the prayers thats are conitnuing to be sent to the family.
