It’s amazing how much you can forget after just 4 1/2 years. When it came time to have this baby I found myself asking questions to my doctor about things I should have remembered from the first time around. One of my main questions was how long I would have to stay in the hospital. Coordinating everything this time was so much different than the first because I had another child to think about. When I asked Dr. Dunaway this question his answer was funny. He said, “you can stay anywhere from 2 to 4 days. First time moms choose 2, second time moms choose 4.” While I really thought I might want to take him up on the 4 day offer, when day 2 rolled around I was ready to be in my own house and in my own bed. On March 12th Dan and I arrived home with the newest member of the Gill household and we were greeted by excited family members…and better yet, a clean house!
