Here's the latest on the Wee Beanie. Ida Jane was under some bright lights for a few days to fight off jaundice, which is a very common condition for preemies. It literally just takes some light to fight it off. She enjoyed her time in the sun, basking in the lights with her little tanning mask on, but now they've cleared her for that.
Mom is home from the hospital as of noon today, which means that Dad is also home from the hospital. We just took a trip into see Ida Jane (with Dad forgetting the digital camera), but we did have the camera present when Amy's mom (aka Mimi) came to visit her little granddaughter.Dad tried to feed Ida Jane from a bottle tonight but she was not interested. Not interested, that is, until the nurse did it, and she quickly gulped down her 8:30 PM feeding. Dad likes to think Ida Jane was more interested in looking at his mug than drinking her milk. Probably not the case.
Since we don't have images from tonight's visit, here's another picture of Mom and Ida Jane from two days ago:The arm paddle has been gone for two days, of course.
Stay tuned for more pictures over the weekend, if Dad can get his act together!
