We are getting discharged today!!

I love Aoibhinn so much it’s nutty.  She makes me so happy.  She sleeps and eats like a champ. Hardly ever fuss and burps sometimes on her own. If this is some sort of honeymoon I don’t ever want it to end!

Can’t wait to introduce her to the boys!

I love her so much! The time we spent here really helped me bonded to her. She makes everything seem so easy. 

Over all comparing the experiences, this is so much better. Not that I didn’t bond with  the boys any less but I really really bond with her in a short amount of time.

I think it mostly due to the fact that she was a term baby. It is really hard to bond with a baby when you can’t spend alone time with him/her. 

I love her so much. She is so soft and cuddly. She is softer than any yarn I ever touched.  Can’t wait to take her home and introduce her to the boys!

It turned out the anthologist had a faster way to numb me up. But it seem like it took forever to get it in. My new nurse name was Wendy. Which was very confusing in my state. 

Finally the numbness kicked in. I was not able to feel my legs which was so nice that I fell asleep. Dr S worked his magic and the baby was finally born.  She was whisked away to be cleaned. I saw her briefly and she look so big! She turned out to be 7 lbs 11 oz! Everyone was like whoa that’s a big baby! 

Then after an eternity the nurse wheeled me to the recovery room. I over heard a conversation about how the baby was looking at the stars. Turned out that even though the baby was head down she was in brow position. Her head was down but she’s looking up. If I didn’t have the c section I would be pushing forever. It happens to 20 Percent of heads down births.

And most of these cases end up in emergency c sections. 

Anyway it’s all good now. And she looks awesome!
