PIC_0077.JPG Lorien tried latching right away.
PIC_0085.JPG Lorien came out wanting to suck. Dad could only keep her calm by letting her suck on his finger.
PIC_0087.JPG We later were moved into the recovery room where Lorien got her first bath. Here she is all clean & awake.
PIC_0090.JPG She quickly found her fingers. No matter how well the nurses tried to swaddle her, she always got her hands free.
