It has been 3 weeks since I gave birth to my beautiful baby boy, Zachary. Since he was 6 weeks premature with complications he has been kept in the nicu. I have been staying here at the hospital too which has been nice especially since I'm breastfeeding because I'm able to check up on him whenever I want and feed him whenever he's hungry.

Zachary has recently come down with rsv and pneumonia. Its been extremely stressful. There is nothing easy about watching your child in discomfort with a horrible illness. He is pulling through and doing great. I'm so proud of my boy and his progress.


Tonight he was given his 3rd bath. It was especially exciting because it was the first time I have been able to bathe him myself and its also the verh first time I've been able to touch his skin without gloves on :) he loves taking baths, he gets so relaxed. After his bath I fed him and then we snuggled until he fell asleep. I love him so much!
