Home sweet home on Day 3 of your birth




Tuesday 11th of March, we were discharged from the hospital after all checkups were fine. By this time, MummyLo was marvelling how good BabyLo was to eat every 4-5hrs and I still managed to catch some sleep.

DaddyLo took MummyLo and BabyLo home at around 2pm. Meeting Moet was a strange feeling. MummyLo was worried that she might upset Moet and wants a proper introduction. But poor Moet was too sensitive to BabyLo's crying and every time, she barks and barks and was very curious about you.

For some reason, when you got home, you started feeding every 2 hrs. By night time, MummyLo was exhausted.


Your poo shower to DaddyLo- while DaddyLo changed you, you gave him a fresh poo shower. Shooting at him with all your might, you managed to cover him with a good portion. Good on ya BabyLo.

MummyLo didn't sleep much that night, because every 1 to 2 hr, BabyLo wakes up for a good feed. 15mins, 30mins .. and still .. you want more the next hour. BabyLo even peed himself and wet his clothes. Even when you sleep, MummyLo worries about you getting too cold or whether you have flipped side or cover yourself with your long sleeve. MummyLo wakes up to check and then falls back to deep sleep throughout the night.

Day 4 was much the same. Constant feeding, constant wee-s and poo-s.

Community nurse came to check on BabyLo. You now weigh 3.24kg, not noticeable jaundice, and the cord stump was healing alright, even though it fell off 3 days earlier than it should.

As for now, you are sleeping soundly in your cot. All MummyLo wish for now is for you to grow up quickly and healthyly.

Good night sweety.
