Hello Forest Service Family, Kayanna is our amazing Senior Climate Scientist for the Pacific Planning Service Group. Unfortunately, she suddenly developed preeclampsia during her pregnancy and needed emergency surgery last weakened. Baby Jacob Marion Warren was born 2lb 15 oz. on June 29 and he will be in NICU for the next 9 weeks till his due date. So far Jack is stabilizing and Kayanna is on her healing journey post surgery. Currently, we are gathering more information and opportunities to best support and care for both going forward.
Special Notes
Hi all, Kayann and Jack are finally home! We can support their current needs with the following link to her baby registry https://my.babylist.com/kayanna-warren As a solo parent, she is seeking the gift of help. More info on how the registry fund will be used: • postpartum doula (from Wildwood Doulas). What is a postpartum doula? ... a LIFELINE: https://www.wildwoodbirthpdx.com/postpartum-doula-portland; https://www.thebump.com/a/postpartum-doula, https://americanpregnancy.org/healthy-pregnancy/planning/postpartum-doula/, https://www.babylist.com/hello-baby/what-is-a-postpartum-doula • Tidee Didee diaper service: Portland's only diaper service. They deliver me fresh ones (enough for up to 15 diaper changes per day in the first few weeks, because that's what newborns do! :-O) and take away and launder all the dirty ones. This solo mom is VERY happy to have something off her mental load. Portland area moms have given me great feedback on the service. It's also supposed to be cost effective over the time until potty training, but it's still a couple thousand bucks. AND I'd get to live my values with less plastic waste. https://tideedidee.com/ Kayanna does have dietary food restrictions, and we will arrange meals through ModifyHealth. However, you are welcome to send gift cards, cards, care packages, or anything you’d like to her now at: 835 SW Touchmark Way Portland, OR 97225 or electronically to [email protected] Follow this page for ease of checking back later for Wishlist and other needs posted. Thank you!
