Debby! I'm so grateful you're doing better now. Baby Amber is absolutely beautiful ! Don't worry about the puffiness. That will go away. I'm sorry you had a hard time. Everyone is different. However, look at that little angel! Oh, she's so special. How wonderful that Brent treated you like a princess! You deserve it. Don't you feel close to God now? You and God just cooperated in a miracle! Hard work, but worth it.
Now it's time to get some rest. Ask the doctor for guidelines and follow the suggested regime, but be sure to take lots of naps! This is GREAT !!
Debby, both you and Amber look just beautiful. Congratulations on a job well done! I don't have any advice since I am child-free, but I know a beautiful baby when I see one. Amber is one of the prettiest newborns I have ever seen.
Oh, Debby, Amber is just absolutely precious! Thank you for sharing the pictures, I know most of us were on the edges of our seats just waiting to get a glimpse of her!
Be sure to take care of you, too!
I didn't have a C-section when I had my daughter, but I have had 3 abdominal surgeries. Everyone is SO right in saying you do need to move around. It even makes you feel better if you do.
Congratulations with your little daughter , Debbie !!!!
Isn't this just a miracle ???
Amber is such a dear little one , I wish I could hold her and say :"welcome into this world , sweet baby !!"
First of all......Wow! What an adorable baby!!! Amber has the face of an angel.
Debby, we always feel we look far worse than the reality. You look wonderful! Just like a radiant new mom!!!!!
Give Brent a "job well done" pat on the back from me! I am so happy he came through for you in the end.
Like everyone else has said ---- rest while you can. Whenever Amber sleeps, grab a nap also. Dishes and housework become secondary at a time like this.
Welcome back, welcome home - CONGRATULATIONS! You two look beautiful! I don't have kids, but all my mom friends say the same thing - take a nap whenever your baby does! Sleep, as I understand it, is going to be a very precious commodity for at least the next few months, if not years!
Debby, I could just copy and paste what everyone else has said....Amber is a little doll, and you, my dear, look fantastic! I wish I looked half that good after giving birth! My very best of good wishes to you, Brent, and Amber. I know you are just going to love being a mommy....no sleep and all!
Amber is just beautiful. I want to hold her!! But, Mom is beautiful too. Remember the swelling will go down and things will go back to where they belong.
Rest when you can, move around when you have to, cuddle with Amber, and remember this is a major change in your life, so be gentle with yourself.
