Its pretty surreal, to be honest. It was quite an adventure getting my baby here. I was going to type up how it all happened but I'm getting rather emotional thinking about it, so I might save that story for later. I was in the hospital for a week, so a lot happened.
My daughter is beautiful, I've never been so proud of anything I've created. She had a few mild health problems but she's home and safe now. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed in all directions, but my husband and I are slowly figuring out a new normal. I miss my normal-for-narcolepsy sleep schedule... I feel like I could get a better handle on my emotions if I could get proper sleep... but that will come later. For now, I just need to concentrate on keeping this little bean happy and well fed.

@Glume: OMG congraaaaaats!!! believe me the new normal will come in a while, but post partum really is hard.... the hormones are really mean and you will cry alot, especially if you had a hard labour! my daughter and i almost died... so if you feel down or emotionally instable you always could pm me and talk about post partum and how you feel... also if you have questions just ask them =))

Thanks everyone!

@Miss Sandman: my emotional state comes and goes. Right now it's 3am and we've been cluster feeding and poopy diapering since about 11 last night. She was at risk for jaundice so I'm currently super happy about all of that but also way too tired. I know I'll spend a lot if the day crying over various things. My poor husband can't sleep either so we're both going to have just an awful day im sure

Ping me, Devil Daddy, ping me.
