Saturday, December 5--It's been an eventful couple of days. I got to hold my sweet tiny little baby for the first time yesterday. I couldn't believe the feeling--there's nothing like it. Cooper is doing better with his bilirubin levels and seems to be doing pretty well regulating his body temp. Today the doctors inserted a picc line which is a port for his iv's. Now he won't have to be stuck every time they need to give him something. He turns toward our voices when we talk to him. He loves it when they place him on his tummy. The doctors say he is doing very well, but we can expect setbacks. Since there was so much drama during my pregnancy, I'd love for there to be no drama with him. We'll see.
