One Week Old
Wednesday, October 6th, 2021
October 6: Today Rose is one week old! It was a big day for her. An ultrasound was done on her kidneys and bladder to try to determine how well they are functioning. Results aren’t available just yet. She also had a hearing test which she passed. Tomorrow she will start laying on her back, hopefully she handles that well! We are so blessed, this NICU experience has been so good, with such an attentive and compassionate nursing staff. I can’t believe how quickly it seems to be going by.
My Heart Is In the NICU
Sunday, October 3rd, 2021
I was discharged today. Such a bittersweet day. I know I’ll be back in the morning to see my baby and I know she’s where she needs to be, in good hands but….I’m sure I don’t even have to say how hard that is. I had a huge welcome home from all my other babies this afternoon which did my heart good.
Rose continues to be content and right where her doctors want her to be as recovery goes and I’m finally feeling almost sort of normal for the first time. Both of us just need to keep resting up!
