Eva breastfed four times yesterday :) The first time she took 50 ml and then because she is so clever and seems to have mastered the art she is being left to her own devices and will be weighed daily to check that she is getting what she needs. So when I am there she will just feed from me :) I worked out before that I have pumped approximately 350 times so all my dedication has now paid off. Emilia's food intake is still being closely monitered so for now I cannot breastfeed her.
So we are now treating Eva like any new born baby. We are expected to be there much more so her breastfeeding can become established and then her feeding tube can be removed. We are sleeping at the hospital on Friday and then I can feed her through the night. Oxygen and a breathing monitor have been ordered and all being well, she should be coming home next week :) We picked up our car yesterday and will be taking their pram and bed home from Jens' Mum and Dad tonight so it is all go. Everything feels a little bit daunting but I cannot wait to have my baby with me all the time.
Emilia is doing her best to fully fight off the infection. She is going to be moved to the surgical ward after her eye operation and then hopefully her intestine will be re-attached. When that happens she will get her own room and then me and Eva will stay over with her. My baby girl is not going to be alone! She sat cuddled up to her Grandma yesterday afternoon which gave her the chance to fully relax and get a good sleep. She is a little angel and we are so proud of her.
