Preemies
It's been awhile
Even after 6 months, why didn't anyone tell me it'd be so hard to go to the hospital?

Cried when I handed over the clothes and hugged his nurses. Now I'm sitting in the car feeding my little man aka. Gigantor, and I feel empty.
I'm sure this is normal, but I wasn't prepared. I wonder, what happens now? Life as usual? No clue. But I'm so grateful. So grateful. For everything.

I had to donate his clothes. Using them for two babies of my own makes me sad. I figured they'd brighten up an isolette or two, which was better than my guilt. Plus I told
