Lucia's (March 3) arrival and adventures

mcvgal

At 6:33 PM, team green turned team pink. I'm still in shock thinking about bringing a little girl home. Lucia came into the world with a big bang, she cried the loudest most adorable cry ever. I couldn't believe her lungs were strong enough to cry so much. She weighed 3lbs 5oz and measured 16 inches long. She is doing well in the NICU and I already got her some liquid gold for her first feeding some time tomorrow. I hope to see her again tomorrow once I'm finally off of the magnesium. Thank you ladies for all the wonderful support.

Thanks again for all the support. I truly appreciate our little community. Last night I was taken off of the magnesium and able to see and hold Lucia for about 30 minutes. She is so small yet so strong at the same time. She was on the bright light photo therapy for bilirubin levels yesterday, but was taken off this morning. Now she just needs to continue growing.

My recovery is taking a little longer than I expected. Due to the magnesium, I wasn't able to get up and start walking as soon as I would have liked. I did walk down the hall to the NICU today so little by little I am getting there.
