Ellie

Rough night last night. We went to the doctor again yesterday, and Ellie seemed okay. We may have to go back on Friday for another jaundice test, just to make sure everything is on its way back to normal. You can see the jaundice a little bit in the picture below, especially in her eyes.
We also went to a lactation consultant yesterday. Ellie is having a little bit of trouble getting used to the breastfeeding thing, and so she lost about a pound from her birth weight. The lactation consultant gave us some tips to help get her feeding more regularly, and as a result, we were up every three hours last night to get Ellie more food. It was definitely rough. One time, Ellie didn't want to wake up, another, she was really fussy. But we made it through the night, and she got around 2 ounces of milk each time, even if we had to resort to bottled breast milk on occasion. Hopefully she will be back up to her birth weight by next Friday, which is what we are shooting for.
Without further ado, here it is, your daily Ellie picture:
