Sounds like we ALL will be going home today…
They just came in and took Jacob to give him his billirubin test in anticipation of all three of us going home.
I took a peek at his chart and his has lost just around 3 ounces as of 7pm tonight. Hopefully that has leveled off as he has been doing good with formula and even took some breastmilk from Mommy twice tonight.
I looked back at when Connor left the hospital…he was 5 ounces below his birth weight when he left. I think 10% is the magic number, so Jacob is well under that right now.
Another thing I looked up was how we did the bottle to breastmilk “migration”. Evidently it took 7 days to go from formula to breastmilk with Connor. I am starting to see signs of Jacob looking for Victoria instead of the bottle. (I remember this happening with Connor as well.)
We should know later this morning what the story is on us ALL going home…check back later!
