I got a little irritated with the hospital today. First time when I saw they hadn’t clean Mary Ann properly in the night. She still had stools left under her nappy. That was yucky and unacceptable. Of course I told them that. That makes me sad. If we can’t trust they take good care of her, it’s difficult to go home every day. The next thing was that they took a blood test today they didn’t have to take. I asked them yesterday if it was not correct that they didn’t have to take it. They never gave me any answer. Today they took the blood test and I asked again. THEN they found out that they didn’t have to. I was irritated about that. That pour little girl has already been through so much, so I asked them to be sure next time.
But Mary Ann did so well with the blood test. She made a little complaint about all the fuss. That was it. Luckily her veins in the arm was good in spite her small size. Before they had to take the test from her foot and that is more painful. I was happy to learn that she didn’t have problematic veins like me. They do see that pretty often; if the mum has problems like that, the child has as well.
I feel surer that her hair is starting to get red. Just like Neil’s beard, he is growing now on his upper lip. Let me just mention here that I hate that beard and I’m not too pleased about the colour of her hair either. I hope I’m not right about her hair! Never the less I love them both no matter what.
They again tried to give her food in a shorter period. Now she is down to 45 minutes. They do that in order to make her ready to take her food in only round 15-20 minutes like other babies. Every time they try something new with her, she just adapt to the changes.
Neil’s mum will come from England to night. We told Cecilie this morning. I was up earlier because it is Cecilie day every second Friday. Then I make English breakfast for her (and Neil). She decides what to have for supper, so Neil is making hamburger right now. Then we watch something she like in the telly together or she decides that we should play a game or the like. We have plenty of things to do before Granny comes. Hopefully she will not be longing too much seeing Granny then. She is as always very eager to get her Granny here.
I look so much forward for Granny to meet Mary Ann. I kind of hope that my mum will come as well. My mum had it planned two times before, but something came up. So I hold my breath and see if third time is the charm.
