We are home!!! Thanks so much to everyone who supported me here throughout the pregnancy I really cant say how much it means to me!!
Lucas has been home for three days now after only 16 days in NICU. He was born via emergency C-S on the 22nd July so I'm really glad that I presented myself to the hospital the day of my last post! I've posted my birth story on BB if you would like to read more about the birth.
My little man did amazingly and the surgeons were able to do a primary repair. He was in a bit of pain in those first few days but after that he did not need any pain killers at all.
It was really hard to see him so hungry, he almost sucked the teat right off the dummy but had no troubles latching on once he got on the breast on day 10. The long days (and nights) in NICU were harder for us than it was for him I think. He was so brave and we are so proud of him for getting through it.
We are all now home as a family and I am so thankful that everything went so well for us. It is just amazing what the doctors can do and he is perfect in every way. We are truly blessed!
