This picture is from 8:30AM on day two, the second night went much better than the first with more sleep for all, and much better feeding times for Mom and John IV. But as the pictures show we still all need lots of rest.
Last evening (technically day one) John IV received his first bath. Daddy and Baby both did a great job with that, while Mommy sat on a towel in the bathroom and watched. :) The poor thing was exhausted after his postpartum check-up (heel pricking included) and then the bath.
The postpartum check went great. When the time came for the heel prick, John IV only cried for about 30 seconds. It made all of us grown ups feel a lot better.
Blessings to all, and many thanks for your prayers, and comments.
Ps. 127: 3-5
Lo, children [are] an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his] reward.
As arrows [are] in the hand of a mighty man; so [are] children of the youth.
Happy [is] the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
