What a week! On Tuesday we celebrated Sienna and Jacob's one week birthday with two cakes.
The care that our two wee monsters are receiving from the dedicated staff in the Neo Natal Unit is tremendous. Not only do the staff tend to the childrens needs but the care and support shown to Michelle is also terrific. While this experience is totally new to us both, being prewarned by the staff as to what to expect emotionally has also been a great help.
Sienna has started out early in the latte stakes and at the moment gets a daily shot of caffeine which acts as a stimulant. This is very common for prem kids. Jacob is a "steady as she goes" kind of chap and doesn't see the point in fandangle caffeine fads. Both kids have now started to increase in weight and will be asking for the keys to the car in no time.
Michelle has done extremely well and has managed to supply for both scallywags which is no mean feat after the initial shock of an early arrival.
