Congrats! He's adorable! The NICU is a stressful place, and it's awful having your baby taken from you and not being with him. Not sure how long he will be there, but I had a baby in the NICU for two weeks so if you need to vent/need advice please don't hesitate to PM me.
And take care of yourself - your sweet baby is in great hands!
Congratulations! Sorry it was such a scary, difficult experience. Hope you both get to rest and feel stronger, and you get to enjoy cuddling him more soon!

((Hugs)) I'm glad you both made it through a harrowing labor. I will pray for his health to improve swiftly. I hope you can snuggle that beautiful little child soon and recover together. Congratulations on your new baby!

Dear HungryCaterpillar, I really really feel for you. I think I've kind of been where you are. When you said you were going to be induced, I got nervous for you. And then we didn't hear from you. When you are ready, please share your story. It is helpful to talk about. I can just imagine that things did not go how you wanted at all and honestly there are too many of us that can relate to that.
But it seems like your focus is right where it should be, baby caterpillar and what is going well.
Is he in NICU, are you pumping? If so, get a pumping bra (I will amazon one to you right now seriously). That was something I didn't have with me that would have helped.
