We had a lovely first night. Know why? Because we decided to be smart (of selfish, depending on how you look at it) and let Isaac sleep in the nursery with the very capable nurses. Considering that we got zero sleep the night before (labor night) we thought it wise to "catch up" a bit before we go home tomorrow. We both slept well, yet are still very tired. Go figure -- a night of hard labor wears one (and a coach!) out. And my arms are very sore, presumably from having to grasp the "birthing bed" as I pushed with all my might.
I was able to shower today. And Isaac was circumcised. I think I got the better deal! :)
Beautiful flowers from Lisa.

You and Isaac both look great! Clearly the continued exercise has kept you fit.
Good to hear you're all doing so well!!!
Hi Susan, congratulations on the birth of your beautiful baby boy! I loved the photos in your previous post, the one of Isaac right after he was born made my teary. You did great. Congratulations again!! :)
There should be NO guilt with leaving the baby with nurses:
1) They are trained and that's their job
2) You've already paid for the Childcare
3) You don't have them at home, get all the sleep that you can!
He gorgeous... can't wait to meet him
*goose bumps*
Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!
What a cute kid! And Isaac is cute, too!
Congratulations, Susan!
awww Susan.
It's easy to see how in love you are! Yes--remember--when baby naps--you nap! And in the hospital, don't even sweat it.
I recommend nice, warm, brief baths to help you heal up. Be gentle with yourself!
Will you be nursing or bottle-feeding? just wondering.
so wonderful! smart to get your rest now while you can. you'll get adjusted.
congratulations again!
Great idea allowing yourselves a night of rest. Looks like you're all doing wonderfully.
Oh Susan, thanks so much for sharing all these pictures! He is just absolutely precious...congratulations to you and Chasen!
