One Week Old


Josie is one week old today; this was a fast week... lots of visitors and well wishes, getting used to feeding, changing diapers, two spongebaths, anxieties about doing things "okay". Josie is starting to have more "alert" periods. She still sleeps quite a bit but usually has 2 or 3 periods where she's awake for 10-20 minutes. We were waking her for feedings but things have been changing now as she's been taking breast milk; she seems to want to eat more often but the diapering is slowing down. We are trying to find the balance of things and "what the book says" should be happenings for feedings a day/kinds of diapers a day. A whole new set of rules...
