Home From the Hospital W/ Tessa Noelle!
Posted: 12-17-07 12:49pm

Tessa Noelle was born 8:57 PM on Dec. 14. She's a little peanut--6 lb. 1.5 oz. Yesterday, she weighed 5 lb. 12 oz. but hopefully we can get her weight up once my milk comes in completely (it's beginning to come in now). Breastfeeding is hard, but she has a good latch and good suck, so I'm hopeful it will go well. I can't believe how fast my stomach is going down. I barely look like I had a baby and have been peeing like crazy & super thirsty.

Anyway, I'm home now, just got discharged late yesterday afternoon. Tessa's birth was very smooth, couldn't have gone better or been easier, with the exception of a 2nd degree epistomoty. I will work on the birth story & pics; I didn't have internet access at the hospital. Hopefully, I can get that posted soon.

In the meantime, here's a link to her hospital picture taken this morning. You have to enter some info to access the link:
1st 3 letters of my last name are Bra; birthday Dec. 14, 2007, state TX; her name is Tessa B; visitor password: Bradley

Congrats. I'm so glad everything went well for your miracle!

Remember to drink water every time you nurse. Also snack. You need to get a lot of calories in and it is easy to forget when you are busy taking care of a new baby you can't seem to take your eyes off. Smile
