Baby Steps

One day at a time, Ava is getting bigger (6lbs 3oz!) and stronger. One of these days we'll get to take her home. Until then, we wait, and try not to get anxious about things like timelines and possible complications. She is after all only 37 weeks old and she's quite content to pretend she's still in her own little world. She's slowly improving her nursing, and took her first bottle yesterday (I'll admit, I was emotional about that decision) but she refuses to act like a full-terem kiddo, so we all sit back and wait. Easier for me than for the Dr.s, and harder for me with the Dr.s hovering trying to get this party started! Hopefully I'll get a more thorough update tomorrow. I must sleep now.
