thanks guys. oh and thanks for the insider knowledge Dan :P your missus is like 4' tall isn't she? so you'd be right?

 

:y: :hmm: :P

Id love to see pictures of him as he gets bigger hey!

 

I can't believe how small the little tacker is, one of our good friends is 12 weeks out at the moment and he/she is a fiesty little sucker, loves to punch and kick!

Well here you go!!

 

Byron's doing really well, 5 weeks old and now up around 1200gm in weight. Between last Tuesday and Thursday he put on around 100gm, or in "Biggest loser" terms that about 10% of his body weight in 2 days!!! :bash:

 

He also had his first bath yesterday. Apparently loved it......

Will do in a couple of days. I've been busy at work last week so I didn't get down to Hobart last weekend to see him.

Reckon I'll notice a hell of a difference when I see him later today!!! :wink:

 

Is now out of Neonatal Intensive Care and in the "speacial care nursury". We have one of those at the hospital in Launy (just no neo ICU) so hopefully he'll be coming up here in the next couple of weeks. Will make life so much easier for the missus and I.

 

Oh and he's now over 1.5kg!! :wink:

Though maybe it was time for an update.

Biggest news now is Byron is now at the Launceston General Hospital :y: , He was transfer from Hobart last Friday.

 

Had his first proper bath last night (in a bath, not a bowl! :lolcry:) and loved it. Bit of a shock when his bum first hit the water but then he realised it wasn't so bad and started splashing around.

 

All clean. This is just a regular sized Mount franklin bottle.....

Good news. Amazing how fast they grow.

 

Our twins were in special care for a couple of weeks after they were born. Was hard having to leave them, plus the daily visits were tiring, not to mention expensive for hospital parking. Taking them home was an awesome feeling. One good thing about it was that they were already in a feeding/sleep routine when we took them home, unlike our first who took ages to train.

 

Enjoy.

Good to see he's going well :P

Awesome mate!

 

bet you were like a 5 year old on red cordial waiting to get him home. Hope everything is smooth sailing from here on in.

 

What was his ride home in? make model etc, all is important! haha
