6 days old
When we left the hospital on Saturday Thomas had started looking a little jaundice so they did a level and his bilirubin was 15.6 so they wanted us to go to the doctor on Sunday morning for a recheck and we did and his level had come down to 14 so they were pleased.
His birth weight was 8lb 3 oz and when we left the hospital he was down to 7lb 9 oz. Normally breast fed babies can lose up to 10% of their birth weight and usually regain back to original weight by 2 weeks. On Sunday, he was already back up to 7lb 11 oz and by Tuesday he was up to 7lb 14.5 oz. That was exceptional, so his jaundice is looking better now as well, due to all the good poopy diapers.
They said today at the doctors office everything looked perfect(as if we didnt already know that!)
Thomas is eating about every 3 hours during the day, occasionally a little more often but then has good 4 hours in between at night. He is a little cuddle bug and loves to cuddle up on my chest. I don't mind that a bit!
Jeremiah is doing great being a big brother. He loves to hold him and hug and kiss him. He wants his picture with him all the time. I think he misses not being able to devote all our attention to him, but he is doing well considering.
Thomas is changing everyday. He was swollen at the hospital and now looks more like himself. His color is improving as well, but you can tell next to Jeremiah the difference in color.

Thank you Cathy for the beautiful cake. It was so cute!
