Fallin' Hardy

Although my labor went quickly, I had a pretty rough recovery. I stayed in the recovery room for a day and a half. My blood pressure was still high, so I had to stay on magnesium...not a fan of this drug at all!! It made me feel awful, and it made nursing difficult too. Finally, on Saturday afternoon I was moved to a room in the maternity wing. I was so thankful to finally be there, and begin our life as a family without being hooked up to an IV, a blood pressure cuff that went off every 15 minutes, and a catheter. It was the first time in almost 40 hours that I was able to get out of the bed and move around. I still was in a ton of pain because I have a 4th degree tear, but Kyle was amazing and really stepped up to the plate since I was very slow in moving. After I was moved to a regular room, we began falling hard for our little Hardy! He is absolutely adorable, and just one look at him and you fall in love! Of course, we were up a lot that first night and he still had trouble nursing, but we were all together and that was all that mattered! Hope you enjoy these pictures of our first two days spent with Hardy!
