Going home without my daughter ๐
I just gave birth to my beautiful baby girl yesterday, she was born at 35 weeks, 2 days (induced due to severe preeclampsia). Weighing 4 pounds, 10 ounces, 17 inches. APGAR score of 9/9, and aside from her weight, she's breathing on her own and is very healthy and is feeding really well. Unfortunately, I just got word from my doctor that I'm cleared to be discharged tomorrow, but I still haven't gotten word from NICU whether my daughter will be discharged with me as well. My guess is probably not, otherwise they would've had me prepare for her to be discharged. I don't mind her staying back in NICU as she's getting around the clock attention that she needs, but I'm just feeling really really depressed of going home without her. We have asked NICU when they think she might be able to come home, and no one has given us a direct answer or has given us the runaround.. ๐ but I gotta thank god and everyone above for our safe delivery and her being born healthily. ๐๐ผ
