Congrats, Dizzy! Ivy is adorable! I'm sorry to hear that you ended up with a c-section... if you do need to talk, feel free to send me a PM. I labored naturally for almost 30 hours at my birthing center before needing a c-section. At first I was upset because I didn't have the birth I planned for... but I've accepted it, and now I enjoy looking down at my little scar because it reminds me of Nora 
Thanks everyone!! We finally came home last night. Immense relief to be home!!! It's crazy how everyone tells you nothing can prepare you for this and it's SO TRUE!!!! She met the dogs today haha. Exactly how I expected it to go. Slowly slowly catch the monkey on that front. Well with bodhi, Fred is a lump and in love as expected.
Just have to get to know her now and heal up and start doing all the fun bits

The ones that have been recommended to me the most by more than one person is Bumgenius. My friend uses different ones for when her kids get older and overnight sleeping.
Ivy is SO adorable! I just want to nibble her up!
Thank you everyone!! I am having so much fun being a mom... I mean, I have no idea where my days are going anymore... it seems like I am not doing much but feeding Finley, changing diapers, napping, and a few random chores!
He lost about 12% of his birth weight and we had some issues breastfeeding at first, but now he's a monster! He makes the cutest gremlin face right before latching on accompanied by this little growl. I love him so much.
Now if only my vagina wouldn't feel like a battlefield. I guess that's the price to pay for an otherwise quick delivery (it's two 2nd and a 3rd degree tear). Thank you for all the suggestions, too. I have already looked into the sitz baths.
And a picture from the other day... Finley's full head of hair!
