Baby Girl Came Early
Baby Girl came earlier than expected. I was only 34+5 and went into labor on 01/20, she had changed position from being head down/face down to being transverse. I ended up needing to get a c section (3rd child, 1st section) and omgggg, the pain. She was born 1/21.
Baby Girl (Aliviyah) is in the NICU and I've been discharged, and she has to stay and I'm a total wreck. I'm so sad, I just want her to come home. She's no longer on oxygen or feeding tube, she's breathing room air, eating about 38 ML, pooping and peeing, we're currently waiting for her jaundice levels to go back down and she's under the light. She also needs to pass a car seat test.
I'm praying that she will not be in there much longer. This has been so stressful. Has anybody had experience with the NICU and what to expect since I'm being sent home? If you've experienced this, can you give me your experience and how long you think she may have?
Thanks!
