Cat is two weeks old today!
-
- On the way to the Special Care Nursery (which is a nice way to say “NICU”)
-
- Follow the signs…
-
- Mommy’s coming!!!
-
- Everyone must wash their hands outside the Special Care Nursery door before entering
-
- Babies are sensitive to string scents
-
- Granmami gets to feed today!
-
- Granmami, it’s really cute that Cat likes to hold hands while she feeds… but you’re kind of giving the camera the finger…
-
- Thank you, much better!
-
- All grandparents must wear masks during the hospital’s flu lockdown
-
- There’s the milk pumping supply basket (Mommy’s only real job right now)
-
- Cat’s fancy glass-walled condo; complete with Jumbotron entertainment center showing her stats (top to bottom: heart arte, respiration, blood oxygen level)
-
- Drawer full of Cat’s drawers… preemie size
-
- Cat’s first closet
-
- Ankles back to normal size!
-
- Cat likes to adopt and old man face when she’s getting burped
-
- (*burp*) That was a good burp
-
- Burping makes me sleepy…
-
- More milk please?
-
- The nurses sent me home with a huge bag of frozen milk… said they are running out of room in the nursery freezer and that I’ve got a nice stockpile
-
- Walking back to my courtesy room
-
- Nurse Sabina wrote a “progress report” for Cat to take home… Cat’s getting straight “A’s”!! She’s doing great so far; all stats look good and she has exceeded her birth weight
