Everything went really well at the hospital. My only real complaint was that one night after he had gone to the nursery to get checked, he came back with a pacifier. Now I'm not against them, but we went planning on giving him one so soon. Why you may ask, because we didn't want nipple confusion when we would eat, and guess what happened? It was very difficult to get him to eat the next few days after they gave that to him, but it seems like we have worked through that and he now knows the difference.

The other thing was the food. It was actually really yummy, but I really didn't have much of an appetite, so I didn't get to eat it, instead I gave it to DADDY. So it isn't really a downfall for the hospital, but more so for me.

Coming home seemed easier than it really was. Although it had been cleaned before we got home, I was suddenly aware of every little thing that was out of place. Not that it's anyone but my own fault, I just got very overwhelmed upon our return home. But the baby seemed to take to it very nicely. His only fit was having to be strapped down in the car-seat.
I somehow thought that our first day back would be quiet and we would get everything put together, but I was wrong. That seems to have been the day with the most traffic. I don't really mind that people wanted to come see the new baby. That just makes sense. So I wasn't bothered by people being here, I was just a little surprised to see so many people in and out of my house that day.

Later that night I became so overwhelmed with everything that had just happened, I broke down into tears. Every time that I break down into tears DADDY gets very nervous and isn't sure as to what to do. But still he does what he can to comfort me and tries to solve whatever problem that he can see that might be upsetting me. But the fact is, I am just adjusting to the new life and trying to make it through each hour without getting too stressed. Still I love my little family and I am willing to go through anything to keep it happy.
Ahhhh I love your pictures! I'm dying to come see the little fella :) Same happened to us, we had alot of people to come see James. It was more so all week long and I was totally chill with it but uncomfortable because I didn't know my body anymore. Congrats! Congrats! Congrats! Could we possibly come see Jr this saturday sometime?
ReplyDeleteIf you still want to come see him you totally can. Just let me know, but I understand if you have other things you need to get done now that you got to see him when we came over. Just send me a text and we can work it out.
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, I'm still getting used to it being just my body now.. it's an empty feeling.
