Thanks for the well wishes, folks...
What a day. Was meant to happen at 8:30 in the morning, so I arrived just before 6:00am for Spal - but it got held back 'til 1:30pm. Very tired after 2 nights of about 4 hours sleep in a row...was dozing in the hospital room while waiting. Tests here, tests there. Anyways, c-sect went through without complications. Spal is fine. Very tired and a bit knocked around. The baby, she's so tiny...honestly like a toy...of course I was immediately stricken by her. I sat with Spal (behind the curtain, I get fainty) when it was all done and held hands as we heard her first cries together. Some of the issues a premature baby faces is inability to breathe right on their own - this factor was fine. Also sometimes they're not very good at feeding. She latched right on and fed for about 20 minutes. She recognises my voice after all - I was able to calm her a few times by talking to her and letting her hold my fingers/thumbs. She also has an amazing grip. I changed her first nappy. I find it really hard to even look away from her. Anyways, by request, here is our baby girl River Violette

Absolutely gorgeous! Much love to her and well-wishes to you and Spa.
Good to know all went well and mom and daughter are both healthy. Take good care of her until Spa gets better, bud.

Wow! Many Congrats, cheeba! She's really stunning! It's been a month since I've also become a father of a cute little baby girl. Is it the HDC's Year of the Fathers?!
Wishing you 3 all happiness, good health & very best of luck for coming days. Take good care of them.

Just thought I'd add a couple more.
First is just one to show a bit of an idea of her size, she's really like a doll right now...The second is, well, I was looking as her, then realised a camera was on me...fond as ever of that, especially while super tired. But yeah I kinda like how it turned out, even if I look like some kind of guard dog.

Thank you to all for the well wishes and kind words throughout this process. I probably won't update this one all that much more...she's still very tiny, actually has a tube in her nose right now as she's not really eating enough to sustain herself...I just gotta focus on getting both my girls back on their feet and home. Thank you all again. - B. Aforementioned pictures:
