Finished Hats
Here’s the finished umbilical cord hats. Now just to wash them so I can get a picture of her.
And on Isabelle: She had an appointment yesterday and she’s gained 4 oz in 4 days. But after we left the hospital Alan said the nurse forgot to take her diaper off before weighing her. So the weight gain wasn’t accurate. How much could a diaper weigh? And also she’s been much more cooperative at feedings. No more refusing to suck so YAY!! In fact a couple of times I got her on my boob without the nipple shield. And she went poop. She hadn’t gone in 3 days and who knew we would be so happy to see a poopy diaper. So basically we’re doing really good. Now if we can just get some more sleep.

Yay! Itn’t it funny how wonderful we feel about poo these days. My whole perspective of poop has changed.
