Jonathan's update

Jonathan is 10 days old today and weighing 7lb 2. which is brill, he keeps being sick after feeds but at least it goes to show he's getting the good stuff from my milk.
He's been very spoilt by family and friends, he got a lovely teddy bear from his Aunty Debbie. It's very cute.

We've had a few people visiting as well, we had Grandma and Grandad Arnott and Aunty Debbie visiting last Saturday, then we had Bryony come to stay for 4 days, and Granny Wisson came yesterday and went home today and Ana and Wayne visited briefly today. We've been sent more cards then we've ever received along with money and gift cards. Jonathan is one lucky baby boy.

I've been suffering a bit the last 10 days, I had a 1st degree tear and some grazing which has been really slow to heal which of course means it's been really sore. I was prescribed some antibiotics in case of infection but my swab thankfully came back clear. Today hasn't been too bad where pain is concerned though so hopefully it's starting to sort itself out.

Our midwife Mel came round for the last time today, she's now signed us over to the Health visitor. It's quite sad not being under Mel any more, never mind we'll see her next Saturday as we've been asked to appear at her next antenatal class as she thinks we are a good inspiration and have a good birth story to share.
