Day 3
It is the 3rd day after surgery, and we all know that means cranky, cranky little man. However, Carter is doing great. He slept well last night, only waking up about 3-4 times. Gave him his pain meds and he was back down for the night. He was hurting when he got up, but was soon consoled with a little milk. So far today he has drunk 8 ounces, which is great for this stage. I can already tell that he has suction, you don't even have to squeeze the bottle for him any more! He is down for his second nap of the day. Loving to sleep on his belly is causing quite the problem with those arm restraints on. Poor guy! He has learned however that he is still able to crawl and climb up on things with them on, just takes a little more work! And, he is really good at whacking balls on the floor around. Anyways, we are so glad to be home and to have our own beds to rest in. Carter is still such a trooper, and will be back to his normal self in no time!!

Carter is so adorable! I can tell he's going to be a little heart breaker one day! So glad he is feeling better and things are starting to look up!
Okay, those arm restraints are way better than what I was thinking. I had these scary medieval/archaic things in mind. Whew, I feel better for Carter (and you two!). ;)
