lollardfishHi all. Here's the story: Nico is still having trouble with temperature regulation. This means it will take some days for him to come home, as hopefully having more nourishment and time outside the womb takes care of that problem. No one has expressed any real concern about this taking anything more than time.
So we'll be coming and going from home to hospital, being there from 7 AM to 8 or 11 PM. If you have any questions, I'll try to respond to any that are posted in comments to this post. I've read everything, but won't be going back and responding to all that much. Thanks for all the support.
Anticipating answers:
We don't really know what we need, but we'll speak up when we need something. I'm not shy about asking for help.
Everyone who wants to meet him will, but we're taking it very very slow. We'll hear you if you ask for the chance to come to the hospital, but please, please, pease, don't be offended if we don't get back to you right away. We'll also try to get him out to public events in February, if all goes well.

Date: 2007-01-14 02:16 am (UTC)Our first was a premie, and too sleepy to eat for a solid week, so that was kind of easier; they sent me home with a milking machine and I just made deliveries every day when I came in to hold him. But, of course, little Nico is willing to take it fresh and hot, and that means Shannon has to be there *all the time*.
It's great that he latched on to Shannon so easily, but it's going to make you guys awfully rootless for a little while. Any chance they can give Shannon a cot so she can grab some sleep between feedings?
Thinking of you; very grateful for blessings like a sound heart and good muscle tone. I know you're going to be so damned grateful just to get him home and be a family.
Hugs!
