our son is coming home from the nicu

Hello, our names are Aubrey and Deven. We have a two year old little boy named Emerson. Currently are expecting our second little boy named Everett. At about 20 weeks, I thought my water broke when I got out of the car at our appointment. Went to triage for them to tell me my water didn’t break. My doctor a few days later sent me to triage again because of low amniotic fluid, triage ruled out my water didn’t break but didn’t understand what was happening. but I had a lower end of the scale amount of amniotic fluid. Finally, I went to a follow up ultrasound appointment and that’s when everything changed. I was sent right up to triage for them to tell me I had no amniotic fluid left and I was going to be admitted to the hospital until baby was born. We were given the option to terminate the pregnancy or continue on. I was then 23 weeks pregnant. Deven and I were heartbroken and never thought this would be happening to us after such a healthy, easy first pregnancy. They had proven my water broke at 20 weeks. Deven and I were devastated hearing the doctors tell me there is nothing they can do and baby is not viable till 24 weeks. The doctors admitted me and started antibiotics and steroids for baby boy since his lungs are so underdeveloped and he has no fluid to protect him and help him develop. It is horrible being on limited bed rest in the hospital, not knowing what is going to happen with the baby and not being able to see Emerson for about 5 weeks due to visitation and other issues. Had a few scares here and there. This has been hard on our whole family trying to make everything work. Deven is up here everyday to visit so I’m not alone.  Needless to say, our income has suffered drastically. Luckily, baby and I have made it to 29 weeks. Everett will be born by 34 weeks if I can make it till then. We are asking anyone for support to help us going forward for our sons nicu stay. Everett unfortunately will not be able to come home for a while when he is born. He will need to stay in nicu and continue to grow and will need help with his oxygen. Dev and I will be driving back and forth every day to spend time in the nicu with him. Gas will be a big one for us. Not sure what hospital bills for baby boy will be like and we are not even worried about that at the current moment. Everett will need to stay in nicu for a while. On average, until mid August. That will bring many challenge, special needs and expenses. We are so grateful everyone wants to help. Any donation to support our gas, medical expenses and hospital bills, preemie essentials (special feelings, diapers, clothing (as hand me down from his big brother are not an option for quite a while), etc would be greatly appreciated.
