Baby Update - Day 4

A busy day but not a lot to report today!

Things started off reasonably relaxed for some of us, as Kory demostrated by eating toast in Mummy and Daddy's bed...

We headed out at 9 o'clock though and dropped Kory off at Daniel's house so he could spend the morning playing with someone his own age for a change.

I then headed off on my daily drive to the hospital to see the girls.

Julie didn't get ANY sleep at all last night. Krystal seems to have her nights and days mixed up at the moment and isn't really settling with Julie because she can smell the milk. If a midwife takes her though she's sleeping within minutes. Can you see where this is heading? :(

Still, Julie's looking a lot brighter now. The only news on that side of things is she's still seeing stars, which is something she was getting at the end of the pregnancy. They've taken a blood sample from her and they're going to look into it further but her blood pressure is fine and they don't think it's anything serious to worry about.

Afternoon visitors today were Hannah and Grandpa Kerr. Krystal barely opened her eyes at all. In fact she seemed in a pretty deep sleep for most of it as she didn't seem to care about being passed around. That's a first!

We all headed off at 16:00 to do some shopping before heading home for dinner, and that was really about it for our day!

Jim headed back to the hospital again for the night visit while I stayed at home to look after Kory. Krystal was STILL sleeping while he was there.

Anyway, it's been a long day so I'm off to bed. Here's hoping that Julie's test results come back clear tomorrow and they'll both be coming home.

Hi Julie, James & Kory
Welcome to your new addition Krystal. I've been looking out for updates as I knew Julie was due to have her c section this week but my new addition is only 12 days old so getting online at the moment is difficult!!
Krystal is absolutely gorgeous - well done! I'm sure Kory will make a fab big brother!!
Love Karen, Steve, Lewis & Cameron xxxx
