My mum & I are leaving tonight and should arrive at 11pm, nurse called and said he arrived safely.
Praying for a short stay, I want to be home with my other boy, I feel guilty leaving him and that he will be upset with me for being away from him.... I am torn either way.
thanks again
I hope they have internet so I can update.
Don't feel guilty about being with Rilon. It will be good for Orion to have some good solid daddy time (and it's good for daddy too!).
ReplyDeleteI feel for you though. My second son was hospitalized (PICU, not NICU) for 3 weeks when he was a newborn. I stayed with him and my husband took care of our 18-month-old first son. My husband struggled, my son acted up and I felt horrible that I couldn't help.
In the end, it gave my husband a lot more confidence as a parent and me the confidence to step back a little more. Plus, my new son and I got lots of one-on-one bonding time that we wouldn't have had if I had to take care of a active toddler.
Godspeed to both you and Rilon (and your mom too)!
((((Yvette)))))... I am so sure you feel completely torn between your two babies. It'll be tough being away from Orion but I know he's in good hands. Rilon needs you to be there with him. Hoping and praying Rilon grows like crazy so he can come home.
