I finally got to hold my son today, after two full weeks of barely touching him. He's a heavy boy! At least 9 lbs now. I'll add more about this later, and perhaps some pictures.
It was just really uplifting and sweet to get to hold him. He was so calm and seemed to enjoy himself. I hope that once he comes home from the NICU we won't have to be separated from each other too much, outside of me going to work. I wish I could be a stay at home mom. I suppose having a new baby will always make me feel that way. No amount of time at the beginning of their little lives is enough time to spend bonding with them around the clock. While work allows me to provide financially for my family, my job is a hindrance to my family.
