Nam is dealing with breast pain and I’m taking care of the baby most of the time. It’s cool that she’s small enough to be carried around so I can basically do whatever I feel like doing. Sometimes I put her down, but I have this anxious worry that the blanket has fallen over her face, or that she’s rolled into a pillow, so I end up checking her every five minutes. If she’s sleeping too soundly, I end up poking her to make sure she still moves. She’s sleeping much more today than the past couple days, though. I’ll get around to posting more photos sometime, but the truth…

Nam recovered much faster than everyone thought (this is just the 2nd day after the op!) and we are now at home… It’s so much better than being at the hospital, mostly because I can walk around in my boxers freely.

Mina is a fixture installed on my arms. Meconium exploded more than once last night. Nam is doing much better – the saline drip and catheter have been removed, and she is up and about. Colostrum has just started to flow, and the baby makes little piggy noises when feeding. That is all.

I was ready to pass out when the baby threw a fit because her diaper had burst in what can only be called a meconium explosion. Cleanup on aisle seven!
