These past 2 weeks have been soooo busy! The first week home from the hospital we were at the doctor/lab 4x's for bloodwork because of Reyna's jaundice. Her bilirubin levels were up to 16 and they had a home nurse come out and set her up with a Biliblanket. That thing was soooo annoying! It was like she was plugged in with a 3 ft cord that didn't bend Luckily, all that is over with now!
Her 2 week check-up was on Thursday. She weighed 6lb 2oz at birth, 5lb 13oz when she left the hospital, and 7lbs even at her 2 week check.
Breastfeeding is going good. I have found these wonderful pillows that wrap around you and support your back. They have been a lifesaver. Reyna was a natural but positioning was a little hard for me until I found these pillows.
Her umbibical cord stump fell off at exactly 2 weeks(on Wednesday).
