Everyone asks me how it feels to have a baby now and I never know what to say. Everything is so…well, surreal. I keep thinking I am going to wake up and she won’t be here…that it was all a dream…a nine month dream!
We had a lot of doctor appointments the last two weeks, as Ivelisse* was jaundice (still is, but it’s getting better). Sitting in the waiting room, the nurse would come out and call her name, “Ivelisse H.” I would just sit there. The nurse would say it again. Oh wait, that’s my baby they are calling. Oops.
I got her insurance and social security cards in the mail the other day and both were addressed to her. It’s starting to feel a little more real.
Someone calls on the phone and asks “How is Ivelisse?” I stop and think to myself, she really is here and she is all mine.
