Dr Low gave me the greenlight to go home on Monday evening when he came to the room. Evelyn was with us in the room at that time. Happiness... That night daddy stayed with me in the hospital. And then he heard what I had been telling him. Evelyn's crying sounds arrived before she physically arrived in the room! The nurses would bring her from the nursery when you woke up in the night hungry. It was on average twice per night.
In the morning, she'd be given a bath at around 7am then brought back to mummy for another feed. That morning, Dr Mary visited us and told us that her jaundice level was at 180 and that she could go home (if it hit 200 that she'd have to stay on).
After lunch and a few nurses including those from the chaplain visited us, we were good to go. Daddy had settled the bill and you just needed to have one last injection before we could go off. While waiting, we got these pictures:
The nurse helped to change Evelyn into her "going home" suit:
Evelyn was put into your carseat and this was her reaction whenever the car stopped:
Welcome home, Evelyn!
