We have got into a bit of a schedule to help with the exhaustion. We each take one feeding solo per night which allows the other to rest. Last night John was on night duty so I sleep from 1am until 7am and John slept from 7am til 11am - we both feel so much better now. I can’t imagine what it would be like for me if they hadn’t been bottle trained at the hospital.
They were at their first pediatrician appointment yesterday morning. We are going to continue to see Dr. Govan until we feel comfortable moving to a pediatrician in Mississauga. We’re both used to the 30 min drive now and as long as there are two of us it’s ok with the babies in the car. They don’t cry or anything but I don’t think either of us are ready for a 30 min car ride with two screaming babies. Emma is now 4 lbs 15 ozs and Leah is 5 lbs 8 ozs.
Grandma and Grandpa Glover are coming today to see the girls. They haven’t seen them since they were three days old so they are very excited. We are going to Jeff and Alicia’s wedding tonight. We are both very excited to be able to go.
Here are some pictures of the Leah and Emma’s first days at home…

Emma’s first bath. Leah had one too but she wasn’t so impressed and all our hands were full.
