Kind of a lazy day today, relatively speaking. Grandma came with the kids. She was very excited to be able to hold Alex. Braden and Emma were very good too.
Braden got to see a mom and dad go into the OR for a c-section. I explained what was going on to him and he was fascinated. He was especially interested in the fact that Dad had to wear the silly white suit and hat too. Of course, when Kathie came to the lounge, he announced: “I have some very important news! The doors over there open both ways too.” He’s apparently more fascinated that each of the double doors in the hospital open different ways than any surgery procedures.
Alex was breast feeding like a pro this afternoon. He latched on and did quite well. He even refused his ‘supplemental’ bottle afterward.
He’s now off the antibiotics. The doctor says he’ll probably be here at least a week, but would be surprised if it’s longer than that. He’s down about 4 ounces from birth, but that’s normal and he seems to be doing better all the time.
Kathie will most likely be discharged tomorrow, but we’ll probably board here at the hospital and take advantage of Grandma and Grandpa being here.
