Friday 7th January

Today was a bit upside down. Hospital in the morning for a change, followed by a long, late stretch at work.

The babies were very cute as usual today; Stanley being wide awake and hungry for most of the time, Willow being a bit more asleep than her brother. She's still not quite as active as Stanley, but this is due to her still getting quite tired and needing a fair amount of oxygen.

Stanley's diet is doing the trick; he lost an ounce at the last weigh-in, so his overall weight gain is much better now. Today he's been trying on-demand feeding - which means he's probably going to start eating more again. He is one hungry little baby. This is all to prepare him for his imminent release - there is talk of us 'rooming in' as early as next Wednesday, so it's all starting to happen pretty quickly now. Soon enough we'll have a real baby at home to look after, followed by another one a couple of weeks later.

It's now too late again, with much to do in the morning before seeing our babies. So, it's time for a whinge, and a bit of a sleep, before crying about being hungry again when waking up tomorrow.
