Day 68 of Life - August 25th
Sorry for the late post, but I decided to wait for Ma to get home from bath night, so I could report his new weight! Without further ado...I am happy to report that the Little Turkey now weighs 1915 g (4.222 lbs). Go, piggy, go!!!
Otherwise, not too much happened with the boy today. He went to breast again today and Ma got some more breastfeeding tips from her nurse. He seemed pretty happy, but kept falling asleep! His eyes appear less swollen today and Uncle Kabooblah came for a brief visit.
Ma has started bringing outfits from home because her and Pa discovered that the NICU outfits were too short on the little one! He was in an outfit with feet the other day and his long legs were all scrunched up!!! So, he's in one of his cute little outfits from home.
Pa went home at nursing handover, as he has to work in the morning and needed his beauty rest. Ma felt like chicken wings, so the two of us went and grabbed a bite to eat. She also had a beer to help her milk supply. (It supposedly helps!!! Or it could just be an excuse!!!) She then went back to the hospital for bath night.
HR finally got Ma's sick leave pay right...surprise! However, she still has to fight for her maternity leave, but she's more prepared for that battle now.
She has also asked me to let everyone know about a website, www.save.ca . If you visit this website you can select coupons from a wide variety of options, including baby supplies, food, laundry detergent, hair dye, etc. You can select coupons every 2 weeks and they are mailed to your house. There is always something for everyone!
