Meagan is slowly adjusting to having a little brother around. It was great to have Grant and my Mom aound the first couple days, so we could give her lots of attention and make her feel special. We've started "putting her to work" right away, helping bring diapers, bottles, and Mommy water when she breast feeds. (As you can imagine, he is a BIG eater and it seems we're feeding him all day long :) ) The Health Unit nurse came to the house to do a regular house call, and when asked what "percentile" he is in compared to other babies, she replied "He's off the charts". He could be compared to a baby at 2 months old. He won't be fitting 3 month clothing for long...
We are all doing fine. I don't even feel like I've had a baby, except for the first day where I had problems breathing when I walked around, which was much the same as during the whole pregnancy. He did a good job pushing all my insides to make room for himself. I could feel him pushing on my ribs during delivery, as he must have been wanting to help me out.
Thank you to everyone for your emails. We appreciate your words of Welcome.
