Baby boy gained an ounce since Wednesday! Go baby go! Next goal: get our days and nights straight.
Stupid insurance hasn’t kicked in yet so the doctor’s office is getting tetchy, and baby’s CW has never had a newborn before, only teens, so she doesn’t quite know how to go about speeding the process up. It would help if the NICU would send over the records to the pediatrician like they said they were going to the night of discharge 🙄 so someone can get mom’s info. In short, a lot of people we were irritated at today. Polite but firm phone calls were made. We are trying to be super sweet to the CW, who really does seem very nice. But she’s newer to the CW side of things and tends to ask a more experienced CW what to do, and sometimes the answers they give her are not exactly accurate.
Also we’re about to go over some heads for Holtzy’s adoption. The adoption worker has gone radio silent, and according to our worker that’s the case for another couple who have her assigned to them as well. Lady, you’re the only thing standing in the way of my baby being my baby. You don’t want to be there.
Juni got invited to a birthday party!! Y’all this is so big. She never gets invited to parties. Second grade looks GOOD on her. She reads to the baby at night and has gone out of her way to be genuinely thoughtful to multiple family members. I could cry. It may not/will not always be this way but it is now which means it can be repeated. Progress. So happy.
