•Baby s First Day Home From the Hospital Panic 101
Why did the staff let me leave the hospital with this helpless little creature? Such were my thoughts the day I took my baby home. Newborns are so different than the cute, chubby babies I had babysat for long ago - and this baby was totally my responsibility! I was hit hard by reality - it was me who was the parent now.
