Today you turned one week!!! Today, you have developed skills with your hands! You have discovered some new ways to use them. Your dad says, you pushed back your bottle away from your mouth with your hands, for the first time. I noticed you removed your blanket away from yourself, again using your hands.
I think you are getting stronger.
I am still upset about what those idiots did to you on your first and second days in the hospital. These idiots are obsessed with breastfeeding, to the point that they were about to kill you of hunger! You were born at 2.955 Kg, but you lost more than 10% of your weight in the first two days, just because those idiots didn’t tell me to put you on supplements. Well, to be honest, I was a big fool myself for not doing it on my own.
Anyways, you are now a healthy girl, you love eating, and you drink your milk with a great appetite. You are a dream baby! You are so good, sometimes I am not sure what I did to deserve it, and sometimes i think it is too good to be true.
Your dad adores you. We both fell in love with you once we saw you. My biggest concern was with you health. So, once the doctor pulled you out of my belly, (your dad says) my first question was, is she healthy, and the nurse said yes. Your dad says, I then shed a tear, I guess out of joy. it was a big relief. Your dad’s family adore you, and my mom is literally crazy about you. I still think a great part of it is because you are such a great baby. You never cry, unless if there is something wrong, and I mean really wrong.
The doctor told your dad, it is because you were born prematurely and early by 10 days, because of the C section, and that you might change as you grow. Well, let’s put it this way, We will love you anyways, regardless if you cry, or smile. But hey, when you smile, the whole world smiles. YOU, You are our world.
And….We bathed you today, for the first time after we were released from the hospital. You had your first bathe in the hospital, the night you were born, though.
