Day 15

Woohoo! Two weeks old! We had a doctors appointment this morning and he is even closer to birth weight which is exciting! He is doing well and he seems to be starting to focus his eyes a bit more. It was our first trip out just the two of us and we survived :)
I feel like I really started to get the hang of night feedings last night now that I know to just keep trying to get him to eat til he conks out. I also realized the other day that pacifiers come in various sizes and if you give one that's too big to a freshly fed baby you will be spit up on. We gave him his first tub bath last night in his penguin bath tub. He didn't seem to hate the entire event.
 Physically I am almost feeling normal again, the itching has stopped and the swelling is almost 100% gone, I am all floppy and soft now which is kind of a nice change. Being able to move and bend over again is just lovely!
Tomorrow I meet with the first day care, I am finally not freaking completely out about the idea, especially after finding out that M's teenage cousins apparently went to this place, even around the same age and they are wonderful. That thought helps.
