WARD TO HOME

Going from the ward to getting home.



On the ward, Ellis had his first ever bath.



I tried to rest but it was difficult as we were having problems with getting Ellis to put weight on. I had to express for 25 minutes, then feed him when he woke up for 20 minutes, then call the midwife and she would top him up with what I had expressed. I would then have to go and express again. I was just constantly feeding or expressing, all day and night. It was exhausting.



We were kept in the hospital for a long time due to Ellis loosing so much weight (11.8%) and my scar was very bruised.

On Wayne and Nic's wedding Day, Mum came to stay with us and I did a short video of Ellis hiccuping which is really cute.



Here is a video of us arriving home.
