I don't want to jinx anything, but Elliot has been SO great since we brought him home. No crying or fussing. All he cares about is eating, sleeping, and cuddling. He's such a good baby.
Some things you have to do to come home:
Take your first REAL bath- he loved this! Since he always screamed through his sponge baths, I braced myself for the worst as I stripped him down for his bath. But as we lowered him into the warm water, his eyes got huge and he sat quietly the whole time while we soaped him up.
Get dried off
Bundle up
Pass the carseat test- He slept through the whole thing- all 90 minutes of it.
Fantastic news. SO glad he can come home!
ReplyDeleteHe is such an adorable wonderful little man.
Hurray! What wonderful news. I'm so happy for you that you get to bring your sweet one home. He is too adorable with those big bright eyes. Good job Elliot and good job Mama and Papa!

ReplyDeleteYAY Elliot!!!!!! How exciting!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are settling into Elliot being home. It is such a blessing when your baby comes home with you and in your case, it is probably quite a lot more work than a non-NICU newborn. Been thinking about you a lot this weekend. Hope you are getting a little bit of rest and have lots of help. You're a terrific Mommy!
ReplyDeleteOh that is fabulous news! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteyay!! congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteBrilliant news. Hope this is the first step to everything becoming more "normal" for you!
