I stayed 3 days at Northside Hospital in Atlanta. (He weighed a little over 10 lbs.)
Son #2 born in 1974 - three weeks early - 8 1/2 lbs- stayed 2 days at Northside Hospital in Atlanta.
1980- trying once more for a little girl. Twin boys born 7 weeks early @Ft. Hamilton Hughes in Hamilton, Ohio. They had hyaline membrane disease and were taken to Childrens' Hospital in Cincinnati. Checked myself out of the hospital the next day and followed them. One came home at 3 weeks and the other on his due date 7 weeks after his birth. We thought God had a great sense of humor adding two more boys to the 2 sons we already had. Now I know he does, since I have 5 grandchildren - all girls.

What a heartwarming finale! You must have lived VERY close to me if you delivered at Fort Hamilton Hughes. We have spent the last 34 Years in West Chester, Ohio. Little boys and little girls. Funny, they are always exactly what we wanted!
