We continued the feeds through the early hours of the morning, and throughout the morning. Still in Level three of intensive care we were stunned when we were told that we were able to wheel him out of there… today! No level two…. Straight to our room for what is called “rooming in!” It was amazing and scary at the same time we sat there in our room looking at this little miracle and turned to each other and said “What do we do?”
Our first nappy experience was an interesting one, with sounds coming from the nappy we worked together (it took two of us!) to remove the slightly soiled nappy! As we did Alfie went for the second stage of his waste disposal, weeing all over his head at the same time!
We had promised never to moan about lack of sleep or sore nipples (Beth!) now that he was out of the woods, this was put to the test during the night as we got two hours sleep. We got our sleep after he was “sin binned” for “arking” up and placed in the care of the excellent midwives.
