Shaun continues to do well. However, because of his size he is having some problems breast feeding. We have had to spend some time with a lactation consultant and it seems to be helping. For the time being though he will be getting a mix of breast milk and formula. The breast feeding is important because he gets all of mom’s anti-bodies, giving his immune system a big boost. But alas, Shaun continues to be only a recreational breast feeder.
Both Grandmas and Grandpas stopped in to see Shaun yesterday. Grandma and Grandpa Finucane setup Shaun’s new bouncy chair. It was quite the comedy act to see them trying to follow the usual bad instruction book. Grandma and Grandpa probably thought they were done with this long ago. lol.
The bouncy chair and the car seat seem to be the best place to sleep according to Shaun. He likes his cradle, but prefers to be sitting up a little to sleep, and the cradle doesn’t do that. He slept for hours yesterday when we took mom to the doctors.
Well, time to catch a few winks. Shaun will probably be awake soon. The adventure continues……..
