One week old




We have survived our first week! Now i remember what it is like to have a newborn in the house! And so much more trying with a 3 year old who needs and whats your attention.
Eli is going well, he had his one week check yesterday and now weighs 4140g so just alittle under his birth weight but midwife reckons he would be over that by today. He is feeding really well was abit tricky at the beginning but i think we have is sorted now. He pretty much demands feeds unless i know he is full and just wanting to suck to help him settle, not a trap i want to get stuck in!
He had a pretty good night last night and went down without to much of a fight! First few nights at home were shockers!
His jaundice is nearly all gone can still see it in his face and eyes but its so much better than before.
