Prayer for Kristina and baby Caleb Uptegrove

[Sarah Spencer]

Kristina's water broke this morning and Travis rushed her into Erlanger.  She had an emergency C section and Caleb was born! Kristina was 24 weeks along and Caleb is a mighty and fighting 1lb 6 oz.  Kristina said he had been moving around all morning and was wiggly....I told her "sounds like an Uptegrove boy to me!) 

Her mom is driving down and will be here tonight to help and said she will stay as long as she needs. I know this is a blessing to them all.

I know they appreciate the prayers!

From Travis's facebook status 3/7/11: 

2pm :: Today, Kristina got to hold Caleb. It was incredible to see how tiny he is, but how much fight is in him. Today they are checking him for possilble bleeding in his brain, so please keep him lifted up in your prayers. Kristina is doing much better. Hoping she can come home tomorrow.

 

2pm :: Caleb has resonded well to his new ventillator. His oxygen is down to 28%. Normal is 21%. We are literallly going minute by minute with him. The nurses are encouraging but realistic to the risks at this age. We may not know results of his possible bleeding until tomorrow. I will keep updating when I get a chance.
