Eli is sleeping and feeding like a champ. His jaundice has plateaued, but he's still on the UV blanket for now. We've developed a 3-hour round-the-clock routine: wake him up, get him naked, keep him awake long enough to eat (this requires various entertaining noises and stimulation techniques, such as intensive stomach raspberries), burp him, wrap him up in the UV blanket again and all three of us pass out until the next alarm goes off. Repeat. Our bedroom is our universe. My incredibly helpful mom is taking care of basically everything else: feeding us, doing our laundry, running out for groceries. I'm so grateful she is here.
We feel the love pouring in from all of you and will be in touch as things normalize. Until then, keep little Eli in your thoughts and enjoy this gorgeous sunshine. It looks beautiful on the snow from our bedroom window! -- Katie
