Well my full-time stay at home mom days are officially over :(! I am being a little dramatic, I will admit, last night was my first night back to work and I don't have to go back again until Friday night. My first night went surprisingly well, we were pretty busy for a Saturday night, I got to use my nursing skills for the first time in months, luckily starting an IV is like riding a bike, it just comes back to you! I also had a labor patient who delivered around 2 AM, it was a good experience for me to have a delivery my first night back. I enjoyed being in the role of nurse again and of course seeing all my friends. I made it through on caffiene and adrenaline until around 5AM when I had to start slapping myself to stay awake! (I didn't sleep at all yesterday!).
Chris did great with Ayden, for those of you who don't know, it was his first time to have Ayden alone for more than an hour or so. I don't think Chris slept much, he said he was afraid he wouldn't hear Ayden crying and just couldn't relax, I remember feeling that way too when Ayden was first born. Anyway the important thing is we all made it through our first night without incident, here's hoping the transition continues to remain so smooth!
