The "first" time I held my baby. I will never forget her warm little weightless body against me. She loved the kangaroo care and let me hold her for an hour and a half. I can't wait to do it again!
The "first" time I got to feed my daughter. It may not be the normal way, but it still counts! She got 5 ml of my milk (yes I diligently pump every 2 hours for her). As you can see it goes in that syringe and then gravity pulls it down into her feeding tube that is in her mouth and goes straight to her little tummy.
Changing my daughters diaper for the "first" time. I was SO scared. She is so tiny...you have to be so careful...there's a million wires...oh and she can't be lifted too high so blood doesn't rush to her head...wait did I mention watch out for all the wires?! I did it though, and I am getting pretty good at it. Phil likes to do it right now. We'll see how he feels in a year!

Congratulations - what a miracle. When our girls came home from the hospital J changed their diapers any time he was home - it was a great way for him to bond with them, and a nice break for me (since I'd been doing it all day long). I love seeing your photos. Congratulations on your piece of heaven!
Our whole family is praying for all three of you! What darling pictures.
I love these pictures, I am so happy you got to hold her, what a precious moment!!!
