Settling into motherhood part 2

We left the hospital early afternoon the day after Jaydon was born. Life was certainly going to be different now that i had 2 children to look after. But i was more than prepared for the challenge. We arrived back home and i announced the birth of my son on Facebook. Once i had done this, i sent Val a text message to say that we were home and she could bring Melissa back when she was ready. Less than an hour later, my beautiful daughter was home. As soon as Tony opened the door to her, Melissa started sobbing. She had really missed us. According to Val, Melissa had been very quiet at hers, refusing to move from the spot on the sofa where she had been placed. My daughter was pining for me. It broke my heart to hear this. It broke my heart even more to see the look on my daughters face when she saw me again. She looked really sad and withdrawn. Tony and Myself took it in turns to cuddle her. Obviously this was more difficult considering we now had a newborn to look after aswell, but we managed to look after Jaydon and comfort Melissa. That night was difficult. She had to sleep in with Me and Tony as she was extremely irritable. Melissa didn't take to her brother straight away. Instead she would scream at him. However, it did not take long. The following day she became intrigued by him and was constantly kissing him. We had a couple more frights with Jaydon after we got home from the hospital. First, Jaydon went blue around the lips again (but again, was ok once i gently shook his shoulder and gave him a dummy), and second, i went to feed him and he wouldn't move. Turned out he was just in a deep sleep. We took him upto the Post Natal Ward to be checked over anyway. All his vitals were fine. We were allowed to take him home. When Jaydon was 5 days old, we had another midwife visit. She informed us that Jaydon's platelet count was normal and therefore it is highly unlikely that he has Haemophilia. Phew.
