Congratulations

I have been where you are, I had 2 children post placement, and it is a very surreal feeling for sure. It took me a long time during my pregnancy to really feel like that this baby was actually going to come home with me and be in my arms. It is probably a little different for me though, I had 2 closed adoptions and with yours being open, Im sure your feelings are a little different than mine. I felt after the birth, an almost desperate feeling to leave the hospital as quickly as possible, with a totally irrational fear, that I was going to wake up and realize that here we go again, Im going home empty handed again, and knowing that I couldnt stand it. But once they bundled her up and put tme in the wheelchair to go to the car, I finally found my tears of joy, and could relax and enjoy her, my little miracle I had waited so long for. So enjoy every moment. You are blessed. Congats again on your precious baby boy.
Blessings
Lisa
