What's with this monkey face?!
Gary and Lydia enjoying some tummy time.
After waiting all day, Lydia was finally discharged from the hospital last night at 5pm. The hospital's parting gift to us was rush hour traffic! It gave us a chance to look around as it had been raining and there was a rainbow in the sky especially for Lydia :)
We have started the endless cycle of change nappy, feed, burp, sleep. It's quite boring to be honest, but there are those few times of day when Lydia is awake and alert and we get to talk and play. Of course, there's also those moments where she says, 'What on earth, leave me alone, trying to sleep here, HELLO...' I also never thought I would be so excited to see a pooey nappy, but after waiting 4 days for her to have a bowel movement, it was quite a momentous occasion!
It's only been a day, but Gary and I are already confused as to why we're not heading to the hospital tonight! Also, it's weekend. We are staying in for our first weekend at home as a new family... What, no hospital visits?! How strange. Well, there are no hospital visits but I have already been to see a paediatrician this morning and go back next week to make sure she is still growing. She is now 4lbs 7oz! She will probably be 5lbs by Xmas! The next few weeks entail even more doctor's visits to make sure she's on track.
