More Update
Its 4:30am. Just got woken for temp check and blood pressure. Temp was good. Blood pressure is 117 over something.
I am still struggling with breathing. My hemoglobin went from 6.5 to 5. something and its suppose to be aat 13. So, yesterday and this morning I have had to use some oxygen. My heart starts to beat really fast and it gets hard to breathe. Got some cough. Chris is worried and thinks they might have to do another blood transfusion. Personally I just think I need to be home and comfortable. And tons of rest will help. I am also taking and iron supplement and vitimin c, colace (gotta get things moving down there, pain meds for down there. Chris thinking if we can get a oxygen tank for me, not sure how that will work out.
My whole left arm where you bend is bruised. My right area is a little bruised. Got pics of that. My hoochie is so swollen and sore, think this way it feels (haven’t looked) like everything is 4 times its normal size, no, no pics on that.
Cj is a great little guy. Last night he was really fussy but what you expect when they have to take blood, and the first lady messed up. And he had some hidden burps and finally he let a huge load out and than he was all back to sleep. Hes downing two FL oz already. Oh and when he goes poop he either farts the whole time or grunts or does both. And makes these funny faces. He’s already tryiing to hold his own bottle. And when your holding him he’s already trying to lift his head up. His eyes are almost always open. He’s not big on the pacifier.
He’s already got some of daddys and I’s looks. He’s got daddys irriated look and my elvis lip thing I do. And he’s already shaking his head if he doesn’t want something or using hand gestures if he doesn’t want something or he’s fustrated at someone. He also likes to sigh alot , sticks out his tongue. Or does this thing where he puckers his lips. He’s sooooo cute. He’s the heart breaker of the nursery, all the nurses love him and can’t get enough of him or enough holding time. They say he’s the best baby in there.
I love this little guy so much. God has really blesses chris and I. He swims even in new born clothing and he’s so funny about it, he tries to wiggle out of his clothing sometimes. Chris is great at changing diapers and I am doing great too just for starting yesterday. The cather and ivs are ALL out since yesterday, so much easier to move around, and hold Cj and change him. They were going to put the IV back in me, but my skin was pushing it out and I was too bruised to find another place. When they were on routine to check blood every 4 to 6 hours, my veins weren’t allowing them blood no more. So they had to get creative to find some veins. So the nurse was like I am taking this out and if the doc wants it back in than he can do it. Your body just can’t handle it no more. Yesterday was my first time changing him. Lol some poop got on me. I am actually able to handle diaper changing better than I thought.
He does have some johndness(sp), so he’s had some blood woke to check him out, and he’s been under a lamp. They say its not to bad though so that’s wonderful. I am always questioning them what they are doing. Oh well its my little guy and I want to know.
Chris is so much in love with CJ, yesterday cj wouldn’t stop crying so chris was walking him around rocking and calling him sweety and oh baby. Its times like that that I just smile. And yes the first time I held cj I cried. I didn’t get to hold him at all the night I gave birth but I did the second day. Oh yeah and when cj wouldn’t stop crying, chris started bribing him with money, lol, he got up to 30 bucks and cj went hush. I couldn’t stop laughing.
I should be leaving today, so we’ll see how that goes. Cj gotta get his pics taken and his winkie done. Wait two hours after that and its home sweet home. Chris needs some sleep, since we’ve been he’s only had 7 hours of sleep. I need some relaxation without people always checking on me. And real food. The food here sucks BIG time. So hopefully today is the day to go home.
Awe I’m glad you are so happy & that your baby is bringing you so much joy!!! <3

It is so hard to find clothes small enough to fit them when they are born. I had that problem with Marinda and am still having it…she seems to be out of 3 month for the most part, 6 month is usually the next size..some of those fit her and others are huge on her, just depends on the company I guess. You will feel a lot better when you are at home, it sounds like you have good nurses inthe hospital though. I was so stressed in the hospital.
