Truly Amazing

Little Summer went in for surgery at about 9am this morning. It was one of the hardest things I have done watching her being taken away for the operation. I was so upset.

At 12.30 we were reunited with our baby. The operation went to plan, her back now has everything in its place and she was wide awake and feeding in the next 20 minutes!! Just how quickly she recovered from such an operation is truly amazing. The goal now is to keep her scar clean and to let it heal. This may take a couple of weeks.

Kathy is still recovering from the section but doing realy well. Of course she is loving every minute with her new daughter. We had a realy great nurse with us last night. She was such a help to us both and esepecially Kathy in reassuring and advising us of so many baby related things. She does not usually work our ward but was last night thankfuly. She was our own angel looking after us all through the night.

Last night before the operation I wanted to spend as much time as possible with our new baby so I spent the night holding her in the cot just the two of us. It was such a good time of bonding for us both. Not sleeping was a small price to pay but I must sleep now. here are some more photos.
