Last night was pretty tough - Jack awoke for a feed every 45 minutes or so, right up until 4am. Dana and I were exhausted, and there was little the staff could do. The little boy was hungry, and there was nothing to sate his appetite. All that changed in the early morning, when mum's milk came through, and Jack had his first full feed. Drunk and happy afterwards, he slept soundly for three hours, giving his parents a chance to catch up on theirs.
I dropped Eliza at Farnham House, and bought Dana some crusty bread, hot salami, soft cheese and pate on the way back to the hospital. Apart from oysters, that pretty much completes catching up on forbidden foodstuff.
I took Eliza straight to see mum and Jack after school finished, and we were also visited by Lainey, both sets of grandparents, Nazy and Tee. Eliza was very excited. Once everyone left, she helped me give Jack a bath, which he loved this time around, and she was very gentle and concerned throughout. Once Jack was dry and dressed, he lay in his sisters lap for a good fifteen minutes while I took photos.
