she's here:)

Well most of you know that Miss C has finally arrived:) She came on Tuesday at 10:25 a.m. weighing in at a petite 6 lbs 12 oz and 19 inches long. I guess I worried about ginormo baby for no reason at all:) She is a sweet little baby and our whole family is very happy she's with us now. Last night went really smooth. We wrapped her and put her in bed(her swing actually) at 1030 and she woke at 115 for her feeding. That went smoothly. We have been doing what is called s and s...(I'm guessing it stands for syringe supplement...) because the nurses and myself wanted to see her urinating more. So we fill a syringe with formula and a little plastic tube gets placed in her mouth when she's feeding so it won't screw up breastfeeding. But anyway...we've been doing that and will until my transformation into a cow is complete:) That feeding was done and we put her to bed again at 230 and I woke up at 645 and had to wake her also because we both slept through her 445 feeding. So really...it was a good night:) She hasn't pooped at home yet...so I'm a little concerned about that...but she has gas...so...lol..it's working in some way. I'll give her pediatrician a call later if she still has nothing. As for me...I'm doing well I think. Today is definitely the sorest I've felt. I'm fighting B's cold and my muscles are hating me. Matt has taken the rest of the week off to be with us and I am so grateful for it:) He really is the best husband a girl could have:) He's my male nurse :P Ok...I think I'm going to go take a shower and get situated some more...so till then,

Meg
Pin It!

LOL, you make me laugh! I would say no to the toothbrush because they don't have pockets to hold them in. :)

We all tend to be bias when it comes to our loved ones. ;p Matty is a good hubby though if I do say so myself. Congrats to all of you.

Love
