Got a placement call

And oh my gosh it's huge! A 2 day old baby girl. Yes, 2 days old! She's here in my arms right now (only because i have 4 arms thanks to the sling i bought). She does not like to be put down, which should be amusing and makes me that much happier that i got the sling lol

She has 2 older (half? full?) siblings who were adopted out through CPS, so there's a chance it could go to adoption, but there's never any guarantees with foster care. A family member could come out of the woodwork, who knows. She's 5 pounds 2 ounces (born 5/4), and we're not sure if she's premature or low birth weight as there wasn't prenatal care.

Did i mention i'm in LOVE? We'll call her Baby D for now.

  5. Very cool! Hopefully she sleeps through a chunk of the night for you guys. The key is to swap nights...let him sleep tonight, then tomorrow is his night to be up when she wakes up.

    You'll figure it out. Good luck and shoot me an email if you have questions. Ha!
