Tonight before I left the hospital, Seth was very alert and awake. The nurse and I tried to wash off most of the goo that was on him from all the tubes and bandages. Then she asked if I wanted to hold him. I couldn't believe she had to ask. So I got to hold Seth for about 20 minutes and he just stared at me. I love taking care of him and looking at his sweet little face. He kept trying to get in a good nursing position, and was a little frustrated I wasn't feeding, but I loved every second of it. The nurse assured me that tonight Randy could hold him and even feed him a bottle since Randy is going to stay the night. I didn't want Randy to feel left out. Here are some pictures (they are from my phone, so some are slightly blurry).
Randy's dad stopped by and Seth was checking him out. |
I think he remembers me! |
I am so happy for you!
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures of him looking at you! It's moments such as those that make being a mom all worth it! Glad to hear he is progressing well, and glad you were able to get a good nights sleep in your own bed. Please call if you need something.
ReplyDeleteThat is great you got to hold him! So exciting! He looks amazing for what he went through.
ReplyDeleteThat last picture is the sweetest ever! Of course he remembers you- that's what makes it all worth it. I'm so happy you got to hold him and that Randy gets to feed him. Love you guys!
