Day two brought a lot of visitors to the hospital. Mom and Olivia came twice. Nicholas stayed with me much of the day. My friends Janice, Michelle, and Sylvia all came to visit. Plus, I received lots of beautiful flowers. I learned from last time, to take advantage of the time in the hospital to rest. So, between night feedings, I sent Leo to the nursery so that I could sleep. He is the good baby I had predicted. He has been a pretty good nurser, although because he has jaundice, I have had to supplement. I think that will stop soon as my milk is almost enough for him now. He is a pretty good sleeper, too, except for the past two nights, he has decided not to sleep at night, just during the day.
Mom caught a cold from Olivia while she was here, so she left just as I was coming home from the hospital on Friday morning. I caught the cold, too, which is a real bummer trying to recuperate, nurse a newborn, take care of Olivia, and rest. So, we were on our own from Friday morning until Saturday afternoon when Stephanie came in. It went okay, but was tiring.
Olivia really is in awe of him, isn't she? So cute!
