Alena - My baby girl...

June 29, 2007 10:07pm CST
After been away from mylot for more than a week...am back and have a great news to share. I gave birth Wed to a healthy baby girl. We named her Alena Sophia. She is 7.8 oz and 19 1/2 inches. We are all enjoying her and am still taking it slow because I had 3 needles in my spine from an epidural shot. Still sore but finally am so happy today that me and the baby finally was able to go home. I miss mylot and even though I won't be spending so much time these coming days, but will be answering discussions. I love it here....

Congratulations on your new arrival, i hope she brings you all the love in the world. You'll be very surprised at home much free time you'll have though, they recommend not cleaning & stuff when she naps so you can sleep but still, newborn's will sleep for like 20 hours a day :) You'll still have a bit of time to yourself, when you're not napping, to jump on here & give everyone updates etc. Again, congratulations & hopefully your daughter will be as quiet & easy pleased as my daughter WAS when she was born! Good Luck & Happy Parenting!

Thank you so much. I wish I got enough Mommy time for now coz my back is still bothering me from those epidural shots but I got a 3 years old who also demanded my time. But this is part of being a parent...so am enjoying it as much as I can. Thanks for the comment again...=)

Congratulations to you and your family. That little angel is so adorable! Hope that Big Sister gets a lot of attention too, so there won't be any sibling rivalry! (Or at least not too much, LOL!) The name you gave her is pretty and unique--is it a variation of "Elena?" Anyway, try to get a lot of sleep and rest, because you won't be sleeping much for the next 18 years! hahahaha! :-}

Congratulations! Your daughter is absolutely precious! And her name is very pretty. Enjoy her while you can, because they (babies) grow up so fast.

Thank you so much. This is my second one...I got a 3 year old daughter and she thinks Alena is a doll...she doesn't want her taking a nap because she wanted to play with her. I think she was not thinking that little sister means a wailing baby and can't play dolls with her...=) She is adjusting big time but she is Mommy's little helper.
