And we've never been in addition to thus inward love.

And it definitely took me an entire calendar week earlier I was able to find some sense of normalcy in addition to unwrap the fourth dimension to spider web log well-nigh it. So sorry. :)

It was really a perfect nativity inward almost every sense. Quick, peaceful, in addition to empowering. Thankfully, I was already at the infirmary because it all happened SO fast. Perhaps later such a stressful pregnancy, our picayune daughter decided to brand things tardily on me. I'm in addition to thus thankful for that.

Jesse got to witness the entire affair (and man child did he instruct an eyeful). He was absolutely amazed in addition to inward awe of the entire process, in addition to nosotros both cried tears of joy when she was placed on my chest.

I've been alongside this human being for nearly xiii years, but my dear for him grew exponentially equally I watched him perish a devoted papa.

There are really but no words to clitoris that feeling.

Our remain inward the infirmary was relatively short, in addition to I volition last forever grateful for the amazing nurses in addition to staff that cared for us piece nosotros were there. We took payoff of the total 3 days, fifty-fifty though nosotros were told nosotros could locomote out later 2.

I pretty much spent the entire fourth dimension staring at this picayune face, feeling thankful, in addition to trying to wrap my encephalon some the fact that I am similar a shot a mom. It's all real surreal.

So, we've been domicile since Th in addition to adjusting to life equally a solid unit of measurement of three. It's been the absolute happiest calendar week of my life (and also the most exhausting, equally nosotros figure out the whole slumber thing).

I wouldn't merchandise a instant of it, in addition to I'm in addition to thus excited for what's to come.

Jesse has been absolutely amazing this week, helping out inward whatever agency possible in addition to allowing me to recuperate from the 'joys' of nativity (OUCH).

He's already perish a truthful diaper master. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 poop detective, if you lot will.

Meanwhile, Ava but wants to consume all day, in addition to I'm feeling a chip similar a Golden Corral. Breastfeeding did non come upward tardily to me in addition to Ava, but I was determined to brand it work, in addition to it's getting a picayune easier every day. Still non easy, but easier.

I telephone telephone the below photograph 'Milk drunkard on a Sabbatum night'.

So, that's the story!

Thank you lot guys for beingness hither in addition to for beingness in addition to thus supportive throughout such a hard pregnancy. I'm in addition to thus happy in addition to and thus relieved to possess got Ava hither in addition to good for you lot in addition to thriving.
