We are home and I hopped on briefly before I sequester myself upstairs sans computer for a bit. I just read through Molly's welcome thread, facebook, etc. and it's so overwhelming! We appreciate all the congrats and well wishes.
We're doing well. Molly dropped almost a pound at the hospital so we had some interesting marathon feeding/pumping sessions, but she gained 3 oz. back yesterday and is feeding like a champ now that the milk is in, so we should be okay. Part of that weight loss was due to the massive amount of fluid she had ingested that she then vomited up. That's why she was in an O2 box immediately after birth for a bit- she had so much fluid in her lungs and stomach and it took a while for her to get her stuff straight and regulate her temp.
She is a sweetie- wants to cuddle on my shoulder after feedings, already loves her binky (I'm not surprised she takes after Alex in that respect) , sleeps very well after feedings...we'll see if that changes now that she's home.
In any case, I just wanted to pop by to express my (and Matt's) thanks for all of your thoughts. Probably won't be on again prior to the holiday, so I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!
