So they baby had his first bath last night. Me and James weren't there for it but according to the nurses he hated it lol But fell asleep right afterwards so it must have done him some good.
He got his first feeding today (via tube) and seemed quite satisfied. Me and James also got to hold him which was amazing. We named him while he was waiting to be fed and are quite satisfied with the name.
His little head it badly mishappen and bruised. All that extra pushing he did to rip through my cervix built up fluid on the outside of his skull (not dangerous, just have ot take extra precaution now). His head is also VERY badly bruised but he seems to be healing quite nicely. The forcepts they had to use to guide him out since he was so dead determined nicked his little head too so all together his head is just in all kinds of pain but he doesn't complain much, my little trooper =)
So I'm experiencing a lot more bleeding and cramping than normal people would (yay me) and the episdural medicine that they accidentally left me on for what... 5 hours? Instead of the normal one or two is probably what caused my sickness. But hey no fever thank God so I can still hold Julius and pump my breast for him. Of course my chest hurts to the point where I'm in tears and the coughing makes my uterus contract which contracts on it's own anyways afte I breast feed. It also has popped one of my stitches already. I'm just all sorts of messed up.
Like was being sick through out the whole pregnancy, being harassed by dicks, put on bed rest, going into preterm labor,having my little man literally attempt to rip through my cervix, and now having to deal with driving back and forth to NICU for the next two weeks wasn't enough? My nurse said I'll be like this for a while. How. Uncool. Seriously. I'm literally crying every three hours from the pain, and Krystal doesn't cry fom pain. I didn't cry during normal labor pains, just when Julius was trying to fit his head through an opening that was no where near big enough to fit his big head through lol
But again, at least he's healthy. And my family is here to visit. So yay ^_^
Hopefully I'll still be sane in the next few weeks.
