I am loving being a mommy!!!! </P><P>A little bit more about the hospital stay:</P><P>Hadleigh was born on Tuesday and we stayed in the hospital until Friday. Because her birth was so fast she had a lot of mucus she needed to get rid of. This was hard for breastfeeding. She was latching well and drinking but she wouldn't drink a lot. We had one really hard night where she wouldn't settle and I had to have the nurse help me a lot. So this is when I decided one more night with help wouldn't be a bad idea. She was also having trouble pooping. She finally did on Thursday and that was such a big relief! </P><P>Now that we are home things are going wonderful!! She is breastfeeding really well and having the right amount of pee and poops. I am loving every minute of motherhood. I am so in love it's truly unexplainable!!! </P><P>Thanks ladies for all the advice, support and encouragement.Tue, 08 Jul 2008 12:51:49 GMTBoxall06http://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic425660-15-1.aspxCongrats on your little angel :-) Shes a cutie pie.Tue, 08 Jul 2008 12:30:01 GMTsnowydihttp://forums.canadianbride.com/Topic425660-15-1.aspxGorgeous!
