Today we both successfully took Jasmine’s blood pressure and were very proud. She wriggled but didn’t get upset as she does sometimes. So, the more practice we get the better we will be, as we will be taking her blood pressure twice a day when she comes home.
We also discussed her feeds with the nurse who increased her day time three hourly feeds by 10mls and decreased her night time ones by 10mls, as Jasmine sometimes struggles to finish her feeds at night and is often hungry during the day. We don’t want to have to wake her and force feed her food she doesn’t want at 4am every morning!
It was a quiet day today and I felt much better after yesterday. We fed Jasmine and changed her and she was sleepy and nice, but I couldn’t help myself and kept hugging her and stopping her from going back to sleep. In the end I had to put her back in her cot so that I wouldn’t disturb her.
Jasmine likes her new SigiKid Cheese Mouse, it helps her doze off and she seems to stare at the big cheese. Thank you Auntie Claire and Uncle Iain. We are saving the lovely dress until she is a bit bigger and can fill it. She has also got another lovely dress from Andrea, Sean and Callum and says thank you very much.
your welcome hope she is home soon. Take care. Love Sean
