Baby Here!

just a quick post to let everyone who's been reading my blog and so supportive in on the wonderful news!
our baby girl arrived last week. she's doing well and we're finally home from the hospital.
i'll post soon as the hospital was quite intense and traumatic for me and i think other people with bipolar would understand.

i also intend to make some comic strips about breast feeding adn other post partem experiences as it's been quite a trip!

we love our daughter. we're completely smitten and enjoy staring at her for hours on end.

not sleeping much but feeling ok so far. c sections have their good side but there is still pain and denzel is doing most of elvis' walks. elvis happy to be home and happy to see me at home so much. so far he isn't much interested in baby...

too tired to write more. but very very happy! and feeling good about being a mommy, just very grateful for our beautiful baby. still marveling at how she got here and feel extremely blessed and blissed...

thanks for all the good wishes. am planning a post soon but as you can imagine, it's been exhausting though wonderful. just getting more in hang of napping even in the morning when she is sleeping.
i will probably give her a name for this blog that is not her real name. i don't want to invade her privacy or my family's by giving too many details such as name or exact birthdate. her name is not a common one so that makes it more important to keep it private. i think i'll call her maya for the blog as i like that name and it means "illusion" and in a sense she will be an illusion on this blog... but she is totally lovely and a great baby. more soon in a post when i get some moment of energy.
