2 Little Boone Girls-1 week old


I swear to God the NICU is holding my babies hostage. They are now drinking an ounce of milk a piece. Sydney is off the billi-lights and they just put London under them, hopefully she will be off of them by tonight or tomorrow. The Dr is always talking about how well they eat. London seems to be my big eater. They are taking their I.V.'s out today. Last nite Sydney had clothes on, she looked so cute. It seems to me that London is around a day behind. Babe calls them Benjamin Button and Stallone because Sydney looks old and Londons face is kinda flat. He is crazy. I'll just be glad when I can leave the hospital with them. I feel so bad leaving them there. I spend most of my time down at the NICU with them. I am so tired.

Ive been okay. Im still having some bladder issues. Pain and I cant pee unless I lay down first. It is also very painful. I had to let Babe clean my incision site. I cried for like a hour before I let him do it. It didnt even hurt. I dont see how he deals with me. I was just scared that something would get stuck to my staples. I cant wait to get these damn things out. They itch but it actually doesnt look bad. Dr Julian did a very good job. Even though I swear something is wrong with my bladder. Other than my bladder ''issues'' Im dealing with swelling in my legs, they say its from the amniotic fluid and I have to urinate it out, but since I can hardly pee its taking a little longer than usual.

I dont care about me though. The girls have been in the NICU for 7 days, I just want them to come home. I miss Stallone and Benjamin.

  1. Hey Baby,

    I remember the many hours I spent in the nicu with one of your little sisters...being able to hold her but having to wait to get her home. I realized, just as you have, that its the best place for them at this time. It just the feeling that "all will be well if I can just get them home". HOld fast and be patient...all will be fine, Allah willing. Wife is frantic about speaking with you; I told her you were spending your time at the nicu.....she understands...she's been there. Stay strong and again, to you and "Babe"...congratulations on a job well done.

    Daddy
