I called back immediately and was told me there was a "premie" that was still in the hospital and that the
case worker would know more in a little while and to call back.
I called back when I reached home and she told the premie was a boy, which is what I had actually felt all along! She said he weighed 4 lbs and told me his name. He has a brother in care already and that is really all she could tell me.
She asked about the crib, but I told her she had already seen the bassinet when she came to do the home study. Yes, she remembered but I would need to get a crib in the near future. She also said he would be in the hospital a while and that I should not buy anything or prepare until her supervisor follows up with a call on Monday.
Monday? I realized after I hung-up that it's only TUESDAY.
I texted my brother immediately.
Then I cleaned out the small dresser that I purchased this past Christmas for the homestudy, wiped down the bassinet, cleared all of the clutter in the hallway, cleaned out my girl's closet and fb messaged a friend about some baby clothes.
It's going to be a long four days.
How exciting! It sounds like you've been nesting. LOL Have you heard anything yet?
ReplyDeleteNot really. I spoke to the caseworker today. She said baby is still in the NICU and that she was going to try to contact the social worker and get more details for me. So, I guess it's a waiting game. Sigh...I'm trying not to be impatient or too excited just yet. I do hope he is getting stronger and sending blessings his way all the time.
