Baby update

She's doing wonderfully well! She weighed exactly 2kg this morning and she's been moved to a regular bed in the NICU. Her first bed was a big gee-whiz affair that helped regulate her temperature and contained special lights used to fight jaundice. The only thing keeping her in the hospital now is a recurring bout of rapid breathing that makes it difficult for her to bottle feed. Once that clears up, she's outta there!

I got there tonight in time for her 8pm feeding, and also took her temp and changed her poopy diaper. Then we settled down in a rocking chair with a bottle of formula, but she was too sleepy to take much - only 7cc out of 35. We sent the rest in through a tube that's snaked through her nose and into her stomach. We snuggled together for about 90 minutes and, aside from singing "her song", Regina caeli, we sat in silence. She'll get plenty of noise when she goes home, but I hope our times together at night can be quiet.

Thanks for praying!

So glad things are going well.
Ain't it grand when even the poopy diapers are a blessing?

How's the dw's recovery going?

Will keep praying for you all.

This is a lot easier then you might think. The first time I went to a poker site, like most of you, I was very eager to get started immediately.

Metaphysics is the finding of bad reasons for what we believe upon instinct, but to find these reasons is no less an instinct.
