We are finally getting used to being at home. It is so nice to be able to walk across the hall and see my baby girl & not have to drive to the hospital. Mallani has been a really good baby. She only gets up once in the middle of the night and most of the time she goes right back to sleep. She did have to come home on an apnea monitor, but the only time it has gone off is when her momma and daddy have set it off. Because it's so hard to get out with the monitor, the diaper bag, & the baby, we haven't left the house much other than to go to the doctors office and the lake house. But majority of the day she just sleeps like a little angel. The dogs have been really good with her too, surprisingly, because they sure are used to ruling the house... Our doctor told us to expect her to develop according to her due date & that she will catch up around 6 months after that. She weighed 5lbs 11oz at her first doctors appointment. Jim weighed himself with her and we think she weighs around 6lbs 9 oz now, so we know she is growing, and we hope and pray that she continues to do well. We are still having to go to the eye doctor on a weekly basis because her blood vessels in her eyes aren't fully developed yet. They think this was caused by all of the oxygen that she was on in the hospital. But today they did say that one eye looked a lot better, so that great news! I hope that everyone has a great week =).
Hugs ~ Lauren
