Emmett Sullivan was born on Sunday night (5.6) at 10:52pm sunny side-up {AND face first!}.
He was pretty big for a 35 weeker at 6 lbs 9 oz and 19.25", but don't let that fool you...
He has his fair share of little struggles with weight loss, feeding problems, poor temperature control, low blood sugar, and jaundice. We're having some real trouble breastfeeding. He is now back up to 6 lbs, though!
He stayed in the hospital until Thursday, and we are now finally home and together as a family!
Big brother Elliot is doing well with him. He pretty much ignores him most of the time but likes to give him his paci and likes to touch his feet.
He looks A LOT like Elliot did as a newborn- he has slightly lighter eyes and less hair.
See?
Daddy is enjoying being home with his "little monkey"- he didn't get to experience this last time, since he left to head back to Korea the day after Elliot was released from the NICU.
He is a FANTASTIC baby. He sleeps through anything and loves to snuggle. He hasn't cried once during the night {we are cosleeping}.
He is just a joy. I love him so much.
Oh my goodness! He is just adorable!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with breastfeeding. <3
