The doctors were encouraging Kara to stay another day or even two. Kara doesn't much care for hospital beds or hospital food or hospital noise. You get the picture--she doesn't much care for hospitals.
So she carefully planned her campaign for early release. First she had the baby very early in the morning so day zero was almost a full day. Clever planning!
Next she asked to have her IVs removed as soon as possible. She started cutting back on her pain meds so she could establish with the nursing staff that she was ready to be released.
Everything was going great with her campaign until she found out that the baby wasn't ready to go. He needed various tests and his car seat had to be approved by the hospital staff. (Or what? They keep the baby?!) There was a scramble this morning to get it all done after the doctor fell in line with The Master Plan and said Kara could leave early.
We are thrilled to have Kara and Lincoln home. Great-grandma got to hold the baby. The cat met the baby. Everything is wunderbar.
