I had baby girl on Monday and I'm so hormonal and emotional. So much so that I'm starting my own thread!
I'm staying in the hospital tonight by myself for the first time since Monday. Our room is a courtesy room because I was discharged at 6 pm, but our baby still has an IV and a dose of 2 drugs to be given tonight. I should find out tonight if she'll more than likely get to be taken home tomorrow.
I went home for about 30 minutes tonight and it was so weird to get in the car (because the last time I was in labor) and going home was weird because the last time I was home I was pregnant. Also, my MIL is in town and I really don't like her. We told her not to give our dogs table scraps, well she has.
She's so loud and dramatic and I hate that I have to take my baby home to a place where she is. I don't trust her. I cried and had to leave the house ASAP.
Then I got back to the hospital and DH said good night to go get a good night's sleep and spend some time with his mom. Cried some more.
Holy postpartum emotions y'all.

Re: Christmas Eve
On Monday when I was in labor, my parents went to pick her up and take her to the hospital. They stopped and go dinner first and she accidentally texted her husband asking what we wanted for dinner instead of DH. She read his response out loud in the middle of the restaurant (she's a loud person). "2 titties, your butt crack, and a kitty." Yes... in public she read that out loud LOUDLY. My parents were not pleased.
Let me add, in my bitchfest, that she got here on the 17th which was my due date. Baby was clearly not here yet. Every. single. day. she said, "where is the baby? why isn't she here?" and posted all about being here, but with no granddaughter yet on facebook. So I finally go into labor and deliver and she bitches that we had to be in the hospital for so long. Um, I ran a 102 degree fever and had an infection. LO could have definitely had an infection. We need to be healed. I'm sorry things just can't go your way. She's here another 4 days. They can't go by fast enough. Fortunately my MIL lives far away and we don't have to see her very often. Tonight even DH said, "I'm so glad we don't live near my mother."
My MIL is coming mid-January to visit. I can only hope I'm past the initial 2 weeks pp then because I definitely have strongly mixed feelings about her and I don't want things to get ugly.
