quick update and pics

not really much to update on apart from Lewis got an infection to do with his NG tube and as it's a type that the babies make themselves it cant be treated with antibiotics cos they don't work, so he's been moved into a separate cubicle for isolation, not complaining on that though cos he's not ill with it or anything and it's nice to have our own wee private space with him and while he's in the cubicle i can stay over a couple of nights if i want so hopefully tomorrow night i'll get to stay and spend my very first night with my baby boy, though he's not so much baby now he's lookin older and he's getting so big and he now weighs 9lb 8oz.

Yesterday Lewis had his very first bath, the nurse filled the bath up for him and i put him in it and he cried but to be honest i thought it was way too cold so got her to put some more hot water in it and then he was fine, his wee legs kicking away in it, thwn when i lifted him out he started crying so i put him back in for a wee minute ne he stopped but then didnt want him gettin too cold so was time to come out and he cried again, so think he really liked it. Also yesterday he was wearing big boys clothes for the 1st time, he's just been wearing babygrows till now and he looks soooo grown up, kept thinking wheres my wee baby gone.

as of this morning his feeds are back up to 3 hourly and he only had 1 small vomit all day which is great as it was the 3 hourly feeds that started the reflux n vomiting off the last time so fingers crossed he continues with no vomits or at least only very small ones.
