Day 3 is going well. Amelia has moved from being fed like a little bird, with a pipette, to feeding on Heidi's breast. The pediatrician just came in and said that they would probably send us all home today. This is, of course, good news but a little scary too. I don't know what to do with a regular baby let alone one that was born early. That said we are very excited and look forward to relaxing at home.
Amelia's bilirubin levels (jaundice related) are in the normal levels but she is turning a little orange so they are going to keep an eye on that in the coming days. Even though we will be home they will be sending a visiting nurse 2 times a week to see us just to make sure Amelia and Heidi are OK.
I'll post some pictures later when we get home.
