9 November 2010

Sweetie!
Today was the day you were meant to be induced and tomorrow would have been your birthday! The doctor is happy with your progress and has asked for you to have 4 bottles a day. It's all happening quiet quickly since we only had you moved to Murdoch four days ago but it means we can take you home sooner.

You seem generally more alert today- I guess you are getting stronger and now have a bit more energy.

You have finally exceeded your birthweight now - you are 2343 grams. It is normal for all babies to loose weight just after they are born and I guess that is why you had lost quiet a bit. I am hoping the increase in your weight is due to all the milk I have been making for you - if only you could see and understand the dairy production going on at home and here in the hospital!
