I am freaking out right now.
Chloe could be coming home on SUNDAY.
Yeah, two weeks before we thought!
She is doing back-to-back feedings and tomorrow they will give her a bottle for every feeding in a twelve-hour period. If she does well with that, on Friday they will give her a bottle for every feeding in a twenty-four hour period.
If she does well with that?
She will be fed on demand for 24 hours.
Then she will come home on Sunday.
I AM NOT READY!!!
Not only did our dryer stop working in the middle of washing all the clothes we've borrowed from my siblings for Chloe, but the crib is still not set up and I have to sand and stain her new dresser. I got said dresser for $15 at a garage sale this past Saturday...six drawers and good, solid wood. Score!
Anyways, I am freaking out.
I know I will never be ready.
I know everyone (yes, you too!) is going to tell me that I'll never be ready, it gets a bit easier eventually, blah blah blah.
Trust me, I know all of that.
But just because I know something doesn't mean I'm going to be cool and collected about it.
SO excited she's coming sooner than expected.
FREAKING OUT that she's coming sooner than expected.
*deep breath*
It's going to be okay. I just have to keep telling myself that I'll be okay and that I can do it. I can take care of my little girl, even if doing so isn't as efficient or smooth as the nurses.
Wish me luck!
Its kind of like going into labor. You know your due date, you plan on getting everything ready, then BAM you go into labor way before you're ready for it. I'm so excited for you!
