Hospital & Afterwards...

After I had Ellie I felt the biggest rush of love ever. It is unreal that I can love a human being as much as I love her and Dave. She was so tiny (well compared to an adult not a "normal" sized baby haha) and she was fully dependent on me and Dave and always will be. She is the most beautiful little girl in the whole entire world. Here are some pictures just after having her and some of her first snuggles with Mummy & Daddy.

I spent 2 days in hospital after having Ellie. This was due to me choosing to breastfeed. That only lasted 6 days. Was very painful. It was a rather lonely time as Dave could only be there throughout the day and visiting was only 2 hours a day and then all night I was by myself. I found it very difficult looking after Ellie. She decided that 1am-5am was time to scream none stop. When she eventually slept I couldnt sleep then it was daytime and I was awake all day as well!!! I loved hearing the words "you can go home"

Here are some pics of the day we brought Ellie home.
