Kayla Finally Comes Home

Whoa, it has been quite a long stint of stress, happiness, and questions. Kayla was released from the hospital today after her Neonatologist fought tooth and nail to get her released. The doctors at the Cdc were convinced that her cyst was an abscess and wanted to keep her on antibiotics, but our Neo thinks that since she started getting better so quickly, that there was not infection in the first place and that he was going to continue with the plan we already had, so honestly, I had no idea if she was really going to come home today or not. I had a terrible sleep last night, I was very edgy and had a bad stomach ache from all of the stress I was feeling, but things seemed to go quickly at the hospital and the doctor had everything done by 3pm, so she was released at 3:38pm. We actually didn't leave until about 4:30pm because the nurses wanted to say their good byes and hug and hold her with no IV line in, and her and I also took a little walk around the unit to say good bye. We got pictures done by the staff of all of us together, then we finally left. She seems to be eating every 3 hours, if not a little earlier, you can tell she knows it is different then the hospital. She discovered the TV, and stared intently at it for a good minute, it was cute. Isaac has been begging for attention, which is fine, and trying to help so much. He helped change a diaper, feed, pacify and every time she peeped, he would go check on her and say "Its ok mommy, its ok, shes fine" hehe. Tomorrow is a day for us, for us to stay home and enjoy her. We are attempting to get used to her schedule, and are sleeping in the livingroom tonight so we are close to the kitchen and can still deal with Isaac if need be. (we did the same thing with Isaac his first night home). So far so good. I am so glad to have her home, over the moon.
~ Tomorrow is her due date :D.
