Ahh, the wonderful feeling of bringing Jack home. He's been home for a full day now and it's so nice to be here, not in the hospital. Having another baby making sounds and crying in the same room can confuse a Mom's instincts. I think I got about 3 hours sleep in total at the hospital. Last night, here at home, I was able to get about 4 hours with one stretch for 2.5 hours. At least I knew if I was going to be up, it would be because of my own baby. ;)
Today, Jack has been great. He has his home nurse visit and he's lost a bit of weight and is a bit jaundiced. So off to the health clinic we go tomorrow. It's all borderline, nothing to be worried about - just cautious. He's been eating really well, he just gets a bit sleepy.
He's so great. He's got big, curious eyes and when he's looking around - he's taking the big world in.
Daddy gave him is first home bath today and although he was a screamer, he's all clean now. Well, until we check his diaper next time.
Signed,
One very lucky Mommy
