Like I mentioned the other day, 21 is our lucky number. Our good luck with that number continued today. Britne got to hold Emma today for the first time. The hospital encourages skin to skin contact and they had Emma lay on Britne's chest this afternoon. She was a bit angry when the nurse was moving her, but the second they placed her on Mommy she stopped crying and was very calm the entire time Brit was holding her. Hopefully I will get to hold her tomorrow. They only like to move her once a day since she's still so little and Mommy definitely gets first dibs at holding her! When she gets bigger we'll both get chances to hold her every day, but for now, only one move every day.
The nurses in the hospital told us this morning that we were welcome to stay as long as we liked so we took full advantage of that. We didn't leave the hospital until 10:00 pm this evening. It was definitely difficult to leave her there, but at the same time we know that is the best place for her. The only place for her at this point. We'll go back every day, starting tomorrow morning. We're going to take her big sister back for another visit.
Goodnight everyone!
