4 DAYS OLD, A CHILL DAY

There wasn't a lot of excitement on Priya's 4th day of life.  She was under the bili pretty much all day.  Doctors continued watching her hematocrit and wanted to give her another day of healing before having Speech Therapy come in to try to give her a bottle.  I can't wait until she finally gets to eat something by mouth!  I did get to hold her for about 20 minutes, which felt like a little bit of heaven on earth.  Today, hopefully her daddy will get to hold her--even better maybe we'll both get to hold her.  We've been taking turns, so we only average every other day each, and one day we didn't get to hold her at all.  THAT was torture.  Hopefully once she doesn't need the bili light, we can hold her a lot more.
