Emotionally exhausted....

Well, we are still in the hospital...and emotionally drained! I had my beautiful little boy on Tues at 9:45 am...all 11pounds 13 oz of him!! Yeah, wow, huh?? Glad we did the c-section for sure. He's now down to 11 lbs 2 oz. But there have been several complications along the way that have worn me out physically and emotionally. I didn't get to hold Caleb for 5 hours after the birth due to him having low glucose and fluid in his lungs...it seemed like I was NEVER going to get to hold him. But I finally did. But then it turned out that my blood pressure was too high to stay in the mother/baby unit and I had to be moved where they could monitor me more closely. I was diagnosed with preeclampsia AFTER the birth, which is weird because birth is normally the cure for it. I had to go on this drug called magnesium that made me feel pretty terrible. On top of the pain of the incision and everything, I thought I was never going to see the light! But I've been off IV"s and things for a few days now, the pain is getting less, Caleb is nursing great, etc. but my bp is STILL too high. And to top it all off, Caleb has jaundice and is under "the lights" 24 hours a day except for feedings. I miss having him right by me, it really sucks....I just want to go home with my new family...I have serious cabin fever and am tired of my bp/temp/etc. being checked all the time. Thank goodness Bryan gets to stay with me the whole time...I don't know what I'd do if he couldn't stay. So keep us in your prayers. I'm HOPING to be released tomorrow (Sat) but I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high. I am so in love with my little boy and can't wait for everyone to meet him.
