So, I am not sure what was more frightening... Getting a call from the hospital at 6 AM or bringing the baby home!
The doctor called at six this morning to let us know that he was discharging Josef... But I must say that those few seconds before the doctor actually uttered those words.. There was sheer panic in my heart!
But then the good news... His bilirubin level had improved from an 11.5 to a 10.5 and we could pick him up in a few hours... I just had to promise to take him to the pediatrician tomorrow!
What an exciting day, my baby is home!
As a mother of a former NICU preemie, I must say, "CONGRATULATIONS!!" on Josef coming home. It is definitely a good thing to have your baby under your own roof. Now the real fun begins!!! :) Enjoy him!
