update

Emily and Corban are doing great! (Dad's doing fine too). You could pray that breast feeding continues to progress well. He's latching on and seeming to do a good job, but Emily is getting sore. Pray for her to persevere and that Corban would do what he is supposed to.

Emily is just finishing up a meal, and I'm about to go in and change a diaper and get him ready for his next feeding. We also have some other guests coming tonight. Thank you to all of you who have stopped by yesterday and today and celebrated with us.

Pray also that Emily would get adequate sleep tonight. She didn't rest very well last night, and we heard that the milk comes better when mom is well rested.

We're both very excited and very humbled. We feel very inadequate for this task, but we know the Lord will give us grace for this task. "And my God will supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."

Thanks everyone!

  1. We are all very excited for you! Have a great homecoming today.
    On a medical end...if your insurance covers you should receive a home nurse visit. These are great. They answer all the questions that pop up and can check on the nursing progress. Also you can ask for a referral to the lactation consultant to use later if it seems the breastfeeding is not working right. They have a wealth of knowledge. I hope all goes well.

  2. Thanks for your excitement. And thank you Lori for your advice. I will definitely tell Emily and we will totally do that if we can.
