hey BSL sisters! i just came home yesterday evening. my delivery was successful and i had a beautiful bouncing baby boy! he was 7lbs 12oz. he was so active the whole time. when the doctors were preforming the c-section they saw him moving and kicking in the womb. he came out kicking, crying, and peeing!
he was a hungry little something too! he was sucking on his thumb and fingers like his life depended on it!
i will share more and try to post a pic. i didn't take any pictures, but his dad did. he wasn't able to come home with me last night though. they kept him to finish is series of meds and for observation. he had a lot of nasal congestion that was messing with his breathing. it was heart breaking leaving him. i went to the special care nursery often or they would bring him to my room for us to spend time together. he is such a sweet, hungry little baby!
the nurse has him on a wonderful feeding schedule and i plan to stick with it. he takes 4oz and sleeps for about 4 hours. but he turns into a monster when he wakes up!
he knows the sound of my voice! it's very calming to him.
as for me, my recovery seems to be going ok so far. since i got home, i have been trying to take it easy, but i can't help myself. plus, my little rugrats bombarded me!
they told me they missed me, then turned around and starting asking for stuff!
i tried my best to look decent in the hospital daily. i got up, showered, combed my hair, and put a little makeup on. it made me feel better. my hair is holding up fine. i have just been keeping it in my bun. i plan to wash Wed.
