As we were pulling into the parking garage yesterday, we got a call that Bennett was going to be moving out of the Cardiac ICU to "the floor". So withing about half an hour of us getting there, he was in his new room. Talk about culture shock for poor mom and dad! We were used to the nurses doing pretty much all of Bennett's care in the ICU, but now it's pretty much up to us. Makes sense, but we weren't ready for that. Combine that shock with a horrible attempt at breastfeeding, and I was a blubbering mess yesterday.
Today was a much better day. I think it was the fact that we now knew what we were up for. And we had bags in the car so that if we decided to spend the night we could. I have a bit of Mommy guilt that I'm not staying there, but they keep saying it's ok. We decided to go home tonight, but this weekend I think we'll be staying.
Sorry I haven't updated with new pictures in a while. They're up on Facebook, but not here. Blogger is a blocked site at the hospital (or at least access is very limited) so I can only update from home. I'll try to get some new pictures of Bennett soon though.
