Feeling so much better now the antibiotics have kicked in and Will was an angel all day yesterday, feeding every two hours on the dot – I even managed to watch the first episode of Series 3 of the OC! We went for a walk through the villages, I’ve made a few baby mixes for the iPod which I plugged in and away we tootled, singing tunelessly to ourselves. William is clearly not a Kinks man, but seemed to like Keane….I’ll have to have a think about what we’ll have for our next foray into the outside world.
Eddie came home bang on 6 and like a model father whisked William upstairs for his bath and a chat. He had his dinner in the sitting room with us and then we got to bedtime and The Nightly Fear to see if he will or won’t go to sleep. But maybe we’re doing something right because he slept really well, feeding again at 3am and going back to sleep until 7! He’s upstairs now looking angelic as usual.
This morning the midwife is coming to do his guthrie test (I have no idea what that involves, but will let you know) and weigh him. It’ll be really interesting to see how he’s growing because to me he feels alot heavier. Then this afternoon we’re going to Granny’s funeral, which we’re not looking forward to obviously, but we can say goodbye and everyone can see William which will bring a little light into an otherwise very sad occasion.
