Hospital Times

There truly is a second child syndrome - not just for parents but for hospital care teams.  When we had Cambry, we were constantly being bothered and harassed it seemed.  Everyone said to get rest but they kept coming into your room.  With Beckett, we were left alone.  Beckett stayed in our room and they only came in to take vitals or when we called for them.  It was peaceful and stress free.
I enjoyed having Beckett in our room.  It made nursing him easy and comfortable.  I was able to take in my newborn, just him and me. I wanted to cherish all my moments with him since I knew he would probably be my last newborn.
Cambry arrived around 8 am with my parents. She could not have been more excited to see her baby brother.  You could tell she had fallen in love with him immediately.

We were in the hospital for a total of 36 hours with Beckett (this does not count any of the labor).  The hospital staff said there was no need to rush but yet no need to stay since everyone was doing so well.  Tyler was anxious to get home.  He was only given Thursday and Friday off and had the weekend. Getting home on Saturday was important for us as a family and we missed our princess.

Around 2:00pm, we dressed Beckett up in his best and headed home. It was exciting to head home as a family of 4.  A family of 4! That's what we are!!
