Day 5


Baby was up late last night again. Kiri was a bit more prepared this time, having rested during the night.


This afternoon we were visited by the midwife. I decided to stay at home while Kiri and the girls went and did some shopping. The midwife was concerned that baby still looked yellowish, meaning the jaundice still needed to be attended to. She took another blood sample so it could be tested to see his progress. She stressed again that he needed to be fed more regurlary - once every 2 hours and to give him some formula milk too to speed up the flushing out process.


Kiris' parents came around for the whole afternoon which was great, we chatted and had a cuppa.


Its also been great talking to relations online via Skype - a video calling program. Its an awesome way to keep in contact, especially with those overseas. They have been able to see baby and talk to him.
