Vicky and Oliver went back in to Pinderfields today to sort out the blood tests (again) and it seems that the staff were ready willing AND able on this occasion – in and done in under 30 minutes – hooray !!

Only to find Oliver wouldn’t leave until he had been fed 🙂

Vicky was advised that if we didn’t hear from the hospital today, then we would be in the clear.  Incidentally Oliver put on a further 100g (or so – midwife’s scales reckoned a further 130g and the hospital ones a further 80g) and so the new regime of breast milk and then a top up if he requests it seems to be working well 🙂  So he is now 8lbs flat which is a real result.

Elliot went to Grandmas for a swim this afternoon so is full of it presently – although is very tired – we have put him down for a sleep at 7pm and hope that he gets more than 12hours kip tonight.

Simon and Elliot are due to visit the dentist in the morning, and we will see if we can register Oliver while we are there
