Day 4

Last night things changed. It was one of those nights that people tell you about when you become a parent. After a long day yesterday of baby sleeping lots and being visited by some other relations from Ashurst he stayed up half the night wanting to eat and cry. I was starting to feel for Kiri, but she was patient and calm.

This morning another midwife visited and came to give our baby the 'heel prick'. This is obviously something parents don't look forward to as it can sometimes cause babies much pain. Suprisingly enough, baby was still asleep when it was done and afterwards didnt cry or even notice, thank the Lord!

He has a slight case of jaundice at the moment which is helped by giving him more exposure to sunlight and also more regular feeding. So we plan to do that today.
