He is off of everything execpt the Monitors and is drinking great from a bottle(gained 2 ounces lost one last night so he is back to his birth weight) and Monday we take his car seat in for a care seat test.>They took him off the Caffeine Fri so they keep them 7-8 after that just to make sure they don't have any problems..
I can't believe I will have my baby home...


The bad thing is a part of me wonders since I have had no problems(so far) if in about 3-4 years if I could have another one..I really never thought of how many children I wanted since I never thought I would have one and now I have two..DH thinks that 2 is enough since all the Dr's said that No MORE after Jonathan..

Congrats Tina! Isn't it so amazing how our mommy hormones kick in and we forget about the the bad times and the pain, ect! I am sure God gave us those so that we would have more then 1 child ;)

Tina - That is wonderful news. I bet you do want more. I want more every day the more I get to know Isaac and the more fun he is. I think if by the grace of God we are blessed with another biological child, that will be our last bio child and if I want more, we I will work on my husband about adoption. I really have always wanted three but now that I have Isaac, I could seriously see myself having a ton more. I absolutely LOVE being a mommy. I could see myself with a whole brood, hahahaha.

Anyway. I hope the transition goes well and you settle in quickly. Congrats again!

Kari, I feel great I have tons of Energy to chase Nicholas(who has figured out how to take off his pants and socks)..I feel more like my old self everyday..
I can't wait to have my baby boy home and in Clothes(I always loved dressing Nicholas up and stil do)...
Yesterday when we went to see him it was strange to see nothing on his face and to see his eyes open and alert...I think I have been blessed with two good babies, the nurses say he is easy going doesn't cry unless he's hungry and you are changing him..LOL

I grew up with 5 sisters and one brother and always wanted a big family and it was really rough having the miscarriages I had, and then after Nicholas was born almost not making it kind of put my life in Persective(sp?), all I ever wanted to be was a mom and now I want to love as many little Miracles as I can..I already told DH that if I can't have another one due to my heart or if I have another miscarriage I want to adopt a little girl or boy that needs a loving mom and dad..

It was really hard being told after finally having my Dream come true that I may die having another child and I Shouldn't have anymore..I am glad my Cardiologist told me I could and I am so glad God let me have Jonathan..If I can't every have another baby in my life these two boys are Perfect and make my life whole I don't feel like something is missing now Like I did after Nicholas was born..

Well I am going to get my Nicholas to sleep...

Congratulations. Bless your heart. You have really been through it (I just read in your stats about your miscarriages). God bless you and your precious family as this little one comes home to you.

CONGRATS, that will be a happy homecoming indeed! I too find myself longing for more, even though I know it's probably not realistic in my case... but feel very blessed also to have my #2. Glad to hear you are doing so well!
