Day 2: Walking again
Day 2: Walking again
Today Dorothy got on her feet. It amazes me how fast they let her get up. She says she feels pretty good.
Dorothy’s dad Carmen visited, along with her mom Maryanne and brother Daniel. A little later Jeremy, Heather and Willow showed up as well.
Since it was father’s day (and because I was a little stir crazy), Carmen, Dan, and I went out to dinner. I headed home to get a decent night’s rest… I have an NSF proposal due tomorrow, and need a clear head to finish it.
The neighbors were starving for info, so I accepted their offer of a beer for a story. Increasingly I’m thinking that part of the need for a C-section was because we were forcing Dorothy’s body to do what it wasn’t ready to do. Next time, if it looks like the baby is going to be big, maybe we should head straight for the operating room and avoid the labor and induction.
