I just wanted to give a quick update...we welcomed Joshua James Warren into the world at 12:51pm on Tuesday the 4th of May weighting 6lbs 14oz. His health check all came back fine and today he had his 5 day check and is now 6lbs 8oz so lost only 5% (up to 10% is normal) so that is good news and he only made a small whimper for the heal prick test. BF was so hard the first few days and we had some problems with crystals in his urine from not getting enough milk but as hard as it got I stuck with it and it has gotten much better now. The plan was to use disposables in hospital and re-usable at home but because our drier is broken and he is so small that he does not fit into many of his real nappies we are still using a mix of the two. My farther in-law and partner are buying us 12 AIO birth to potty naughty baby nappies so with any luck they will fit him well by the time they get here if he is still small.

His first real nappy on was pink since it is newborn size (DH did not really like putting a boy in pink) but I still think he looks super cute in it even if it did only last all of 5 minutes before the next one was put on. As you can see his totsbots size 1 Bamboozles are a little bulky but he is not a big newborn so that is to be expected and the totsbots wrap is a size 0 as our size 1 wraps are huge for him! Unfortunately, you can not see quite how cute he really is on these photos since he throws a bit of a tantrum at changing time (although less so with a nice warm re-usable than a disposable).
