Midwife: 5 days old

Jacqui came to see us yesterday afternoon for our check. I'm healing well (the pains in my tummy are a sign of nerves reattaching) and everything I'm experiencing is normal (reassuring to your emotionally fuelled mother) and you're doing really well adjusting to life outside of my tummy.

You had bloods taken to make sure you don't have any conditions we need to pay attention to and were weighed (now weighing 2879g - that's 6lb 5oz). Your cord is healing well and you're losing the yellow tinge. She's happy with the breastfeeding.

Jacqui is so happy with us, she won't be back until Monday to see us (we can call in the meantime if we need anything).

Well done Maddy! Clever little thing.
