High-Risk Pregnancy
Elijah is home!
Just a quick note to let all of you know that Elijah and I came home from the hospital today, on Thanksgiving, as planned. Eli has lost about 10% of his body weight despite nursing nearly every 1/2 hour yesterday (oh my gosh, MY NIPPLES ARE KILLING ME!!!), so we are now using a Supplemental Nursing System (SNS) until my milk comes in. Apparently this is quite common with big babies. I was hesitant at first, but the little guy just wasn't satisfied at all. We did the SNS and Eli slept 5 1/2 hours last night! Good grief!
Anyways, I am positively exhausted but in love. I'll have to post more pictures later. Just wanted let everyone know that things are going well and we're home!

After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.
