Sorry I haven't been able to update or anything since Tuesday but I just haven't found the time to sleep, let alone do anything else. I was officially discharged yesterday and coming home without Emmett in my arms was absolutely heartbreaking. I don't think I stopped crying all night, and I definitely couldn't sleep. Not that I am getting much of that to begin with. I have been pumping every 2-3 hours around the clock and the first couple of days were torture, but that was before the milk came in. We have been very blessed so far that Emmett has everything going for him. He hasn't had any breathing troubles, he's doing a great job regulating his own body temperature and has been an excellent sucker/swallower. He's our little rock star. He's classified as a feeder/grower right now and he should be able to come home in another day or so.
I have to get going, Rob had a few errands to run this morning so we're on our way back to the hospital in just a few.

I just wanted to say "Hi" and tell you I know how hard walking out of the hospital without your baby is. I'm the mom of a former 24 weeker, who is now 4 years old. Leaving the hospital without him was one of the hardest things I have ever done. It sounds like your little miracle is doing well. I hope he'll be home with you soon!
