Court is looking so much better today. She is more mobile, and the recovery is just happening so fast now it seems. We still have a long road ahead of us, but it is very encouraging when you can see the results.
Jackson's evening nurse thought it would be a nice surprise to bring him down to see mommy! She was very excited to be able to see him in her own room. He was able to stay for about thirty minutes before his nurse had to get back to her other babies. Great times!
She also laid a great surprise on us. She said the rumor was that Mr. Jax would be going home tomorrow if his morning tests were good. This is so awesome, and exceptionally frightening at the same time! Thank God I am surrounded by family and friends that know way more about babies than I do. I'm not saying newspaper and a pack and play would be a good idea, but it was a thought. :)

So now that the update is finished, humor me. I had to stop and buy diapers for Jax because he has already grown out of the newborn diapers. That's my boy! However, I had to buy a 234 pack! Holy crap! I figure he will fit in these for about a month maybe. I calculate that as approximately 8 dirty diapers a day. Are you kidding me? Holy 5#$%!
You might get more than 8 a day :) when I worked at a daycare we did diaper changes every 2 hours! You might get more than 8 a day :) when I worked at a daycare we did diaper changes every 2 hours!

ReplyDeleteFirst off Im so glad Court had a better day. Second the UK nurses and doctors ROCK!! Lastly you will need the 234 diapers and it is always better to have stock! If you have a bunch of newborns you could try and swap them out. Best piese of advice I can give you for changing a boys diaper is to cover the wee wee and be sure to point the wee wee down before closing the diaper otherwise you will have a leak!
ReplyDeleteMissing you guys like crazy!
Can you even imagine how many diapers we have been through the past 2 1/2 years? LOL. That will give anyone a stroke.
