The first time Mary (our midwife) came for a house visit, Aidan was only 4 days old and we (mainly me) were very worried because he hadn’t peed enough times during the day (babies are supposed to pee a specific number of times each of the first few days after birth, and that’s the way to know they are feeding well and are healthy) When she was weighing him, he peed all over her scale. She kept saying: He’s just perfect!! We were so relieved and happy to know our little baby was fine and thriving. We will never forget that day.
Today was our last appointment with our midwives – from now on our family doctor takes over Aidan’s health care. We have so much to thank them for making this ride such a wonderful experience...
He is almost 7 weeks and he’s still just perfect!
