Day 6 6/7/11 Our Monkey Boy

On Wednesday we went for a midwife visit.She checked Michael out and weighed him. He has lost a little weight since birth, as is normal, but not as much as expected. So something must be right with the feeding. The problem with breast feeding is you can't see how much milk baby is getting. Looks like he is doing fine which is a huge relief to Rocio and me.
The feeding is getting a little easier now. I guess Michael is learning how to latch on and it takes a lot less time to get him started now. In the evening we took Michael for the first time to the hackspace to show him off. Rocio and Michael sat in the blue room whilst I busied about doing work on the Braille Tweeter.

Here he is looking up at Mummy. Look how hairy he is on his arms. Monkey boy!
