Just got back from visiting Hannah at the hospital. She's having a good day so far. We brought her a "dandle" doll (or "ookie" doll), which is essentially a flat, gingerbread-man-shaped cotton doll that Carla wore close to her skin for a day, then left in the incubator close to Hannah. The idea is to comfort Hannah with "mom" smells.

That is a great idea! She can probably hear your voices through the incubator, too. That will let her know Mommy and Daddy are near.

I am sure she is aware of your touch and your voices, too. Even in the womb, a baby responds to the senses.
