Hi everyone, sorry I did not wtite yesterday, it was busy and I was lazy. Yesterday we helped with Madison's dressing for the first time. It was a real process, it took four of us in total. One to hold her feet, one to hold her hands, one to support the omphalocele and one to do the dressing. Our main nurse taught us yesterday, and today we helped the new nurse through the steps. We are learning so many new things, it is crazy! Meaghan has been learning how to pump milk, and is doing so well! This is just a quick little post, we are finally coming home for the first time and Meg is going to write tonight.
Thanks to our nieces who sent me us picture they painted welcoming Madison, thanks Hannah and Shelby for the nice art work!
Im sure learning how to dress is just one of a million things you are about to learn. Being a parent is like starting at school all over again and with Madison starting so special - you'll learn even more than the average parent! Sounds like Meaghan is finally feeling better - Yeh! A good night's sleep in your own bed in the quiet of your own home will also help. Please give Madison a kiss from us (even if you can only blow it to her) Loads & Loads of Love, Great Uncle John and Great Dalphine!
