Well, the most anxiously awaited day of the year has come and gone. Charlie is HERE!!! Can you believe it? We got to the hospital at 10am on Tuesday
And at 12:27pm we had a daughter!!!
They let her stay with me while I recovered and she latched on for the first time and did really well
Then we all moved up to our room and she got her first bath
And she got to meet the rest of the fam
Sug and I are beyond ecstatic. She has been an absolute joy to have around. She’s such a calm and content baby. MOST of the time has been spent sleeping. In fact, she lost weight the first couple of days because she kept falling asleep when she was supposed to be eating. She was 8lbs 2oz when she was born and yesterday morning had dropped to 7lbs 6oz. Yesterday we spent then entire day cuddling and feeding and when she got her check up this morning, she weighed 7lbs 9oz so we’re very proud of her for gaining those 3 oz and the doctor isn’t worried about her like she was yesterday morning.
We’re leaving the hospital this evening and heading home for the first time. It’s kind of sad that the worlds greatest big brother won’t be there to greet us when we get home. But we’ll see him shortly. We’ll travel to Ohio next week to be with him.
