It’s amazing, but this blog has actually ruined Louise’s social network. Lots of Louise’s friends are reading my blog, which is great. (Where were you 7 years ago when I first started?) But many of my Molly news posts are full of more information and personal thoughts than I’ve even shared with Louise at times. So whenever Louise speaks to someone on the phone, not only have they heard all the news, but sometimes they’re telling Louise additional things about her life. Louise still hasn’t read my blog since going into hospital, so it’s all pretty surreal to her.
Molly’s doing really well. At times she seems to smile, and sometimes even acknowledge that we exist. Not really, but almost. And she’s still not crying much, except when she’s doing a number twos. Very similar to her Daddy in fact.

Today Molly shat three times in the middle of a nappy change.
We’ve been changing Molly in her bassinet since she came home last Thursday, and my back has been starting to hurt because it’s too low down, so we finally bit the bullet and bought a change table. My Mum and Dad did the research over the weekend, and I went and picked one up today. The plan was that Louise, Molly and I would go, but the severe thunderstorms put paid to that. We also had another visit from the communit... more
When people say that you don’t get any sleep in the first few months of baby being at home, you think OK, I’ve had some pretty bad nights in my time, sure it’s going to be bad, but how hard can it be?
Last night was difficult, getting up every few hours for feeding and cares. At 3am I couldn’t take it anymore and ended up sleeping for most of the night, with Louise doing every shift and then sleeping a few hours this morning on the lounge.
We were both sleep depriv... more
Molly came home yesterday (Thursday) at around 2pm. Yay!
We had about 4-5 hours sleep the night before, getting up around 8am. We didn’t get the bottles and other bits and pieces on the Wednesday, and typically for us, we actually bought the wrong food. I mean, it’s not like we bought chicken chunks in jelly, when she prefers tuna strips in brine, no, we bought the formula the hospital uses, but for full terms, not preterms. So knowing we’d have to feed her around 3... more
