I am terrible person because I am trying to figure out if she has mesh panties, depends, or what under that dress. I am impressed and also feel bad for her she cannot be in the mood for that at all. That dress is gorgeous though!
I very much would have loved to have gotten the hell out of that hospital on the same day I gave birth. And once I could feel my feet again.
I love her!
Me too. If I could be at home in my own bed with around the clock medical care I would put on a flowered dress and wave for a minute. I hated every second of being in the hospital.
She is really beautiful I had to have c-sections but from I understand it is somewhat the same pp. So... Does she sit on some sort of a puppy pad inside of the dress when she gets in? I'm just kind of worried about the dress.
No need to worry about the dress. She won't need to wear it again. She'll be back down to her perfect size 2 body before her next appearance!
I hope she feels as great as she looks! I never looked that great (obviously), but I felt fantastic after my second baby.
Wow! She looks amazing. Is she human? I don't have kids (yet), but I also have not ever seen anyone look so awake, put together and beautiful 12 hours after giving birth. Most of my friends looked as though they'd been awake for 100 hours, were swollen and looked like they needed to nap for a month.
I hope that's me (minus the killer body and hair...it's birth, not plastic surgery) in the next 24 hours.
I had the gas too, and no epi, so I walked/hobbled out 3 hours later after a shower and the best Rice Krispies of my life. I felt fantastic, and it was amazing to sleep in our own bed since it was 11pm and DS was still pretty sleepy that first day.
The MWs were then out at our place at 8am, and were on call 24 hours if we needed them.
She's amazing. And heels? Geez. I know she has a team making her look fabulous, but damn. Also, she's beautiful and a princess and seems perfect and I want to hate her and be jealous, but I just adore her.
I was just saying to DH this morning I wouldn't want to be her. I would happily marry a duke and be a duchess, but there are lots of rich and powerful men in the world (even crown princes) whose wives don't have to look perfect for the world media 7 hours after giving birth. And who don't have to be up looking perfect for 6 am church services Christmas morning, don't have all of England criticizing the price of their kitchen remodel, and who don't have the entire world watching for any possible misstep. Can you imagine the pressure? No wonder Prince Harry can't find anyone to marry him, and Prince Charles had to resort to a naive 19 y/old. IMO, they're lucky to have gotten her, and she deserves every sapphire and diamond she's been given.
She really does look great, but it's not like she sat there doing her own hair and make up. I would have been happy to sit on my ass in the hospital bed while someone did me up.
The only thing that I find really impressive is the heels. Amazing that she can even stand to put them on her feet less then 12 hours after giving birth.
I mentioned this in a GotP post - I was literally peeing on myself about 8 hours after birth (didn't realize how little control I had down there right afterwards). It doesn't matter that she has people to make her look great, she wasn't peeing on the floor like an animal - I have to give her credit where credit is due.

I was thinking about her and the baby as I was pumping. I bet it is damn near impossible to offer her the kind of security she and a new a baby would need in the hospital. I bet they said if you can walk out on your own, we'll get you home and have a full on medical and personal support staff there where we can control things better than the hospital can. Not that the hospital did a bad job with security or anything, just that it's a hospital with lots of people coming and going at all times and at home she and the baby and rest of the family can be on lockdown.
I bet she got home, changed into yoga pants, and crawled into bed and snuggled both her babies.
