Our first two days at home have gone pretty well. As with our stay in the hospital, Mia is still on a backward schedule sleeping all day and restless all night, but we are coping with that. We try to nap when she does, which works a lot better without the nurses doing their checks.
Piper's reaction has been interesting (Piper is our dog). Everyone told us that she would be jealous, and maybe ultimately protective. We've seen the former, and are waiting for the latter to kick in. She basically just whines a little more, and shadows whoever has the baby in their arms. The funny thing is, she probably gets even more attention than she did before because we are pretty vigilant about not leaving her out. At the moment, all she notices is the new competition.
Just prior to calling the pediatrician to schedule Mia's first wellness checkup we noticed a little bit of yellowish-ness in her eyes. Just to be safe, they made the appointment for Saturday morning instead of Monday so they could check the jaundice. 9:45 am... that's usually right in the middle of our morning nap to catch up from the previous night.
