We actually get to leave the hospital!!!
Last week we were trying to plan a way for Amaree to come stay with us longer and to arrange Andrew's work schedule so I asked an NNP to find out what Dashiell needed to do to go home. She looked and said he could go home tomorrow. I was shocked. After much hustle and bustle and arranging, it actually took another day but we were discharged! There has been so much to do trying to get him ready and we were not prepared. Coming home to the house and then having to get ready for the baby with him here has been entertaining.
When they weighed him the night before he was discharged he weighed 4 lbs 13 oz. That is the same weight that Amaree was when she came home! How crazy is that?
When we arrived, we took Dashiell to his peditrician, and he checked the O2 saturation levels. Dash had to have the oxygen turned up so he was saturating appropriately but eventually we will be able to wean him back down.
We have been adjusting to the addition of our family and I have loved just being back in my own house, in my own bed, and my own space. The last few days have been wonderful, it is a blessing to have my family together again!
Happy Valentine's! Just like you'd hoped. So excited for you.
