most wonderful feeling in the world. She was feeling that her baby belonged to the respirator not to her and said she felt like it really did not feel like her baby before this.
Alan (Nikki's dh) gave her some kisses and took lots of video of moms first hold on her. I hope he took some still shots too for us. I am so glad that we bought them the video recorder the other week, this baby will have her life story on film.
Akiva made it through the heart surgery and although it took her a day and half to get over the anesthetic she was doing great. She is no longer getting pain meds, but is on antibiotics so that there will be no infection form the surgery.
She has to have the respirator on at about 20% but that is not too bad.. soon she will be without it again.
Well seems like it has been a good weekend for our little one.. and now I so want to go back and see her... this weekend to come will seem like months instead of days.
Well Just wanted to update you all on her progress!
Hugs, Lor
