And Baby is finally home

Than Au December 29, 2008
The past 5 days were really difficult for Lani and I. We had to leave the hospital on 24 Dec without our Ethan (a.k.a. Bubwit). He had to stay at the nursery because of jaundice (ABO incompatibility) and infection (presumed sepsis).

We spent the week going back and forth between home and hospital. Lani cried a lot and would only regain her strength when it's nearing the time of our next visit. We would sometimes go there at 11pm just so she can breastfeed our baby.

I was not as lucky. I didn't get to hold, much less cuddle our Baby coz only breastfeeding moms are allowed inside. Much to my delight, Lani caught this cute video of Ethan for me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMzm4ToXZ4g

Well the great news is, Ethan is already out and we got him home today. Ka Haydee was here to pay him a visit.

Enjoy the pics.
