2002-05-08 First bath at home. First tour to Solna Centrum in the baby carriage. Anna & Magnus Wallin came to visit.

2002-05-07 Had our first visit at the BVC today, and he now weighs 3405g, and is 53cm long. Which would mean he has grown 3cm in 5 days. An astonishing feat! I'm not much for conspiracies, but I suspect that one of the two measurements is not quite accurate. And yes, he peed on the nurse. Later that afternoon the last piece of umbilical cord fell off. Henrik, Kristina and Filippa came by, here is a totally spontaneous shot of both babies.

2002-05-06 First time a visitor got to hold him, and a little more eye-contact, and a little more crying..

2002-05-05 Hurray, home at last!! We had a good stay at the maternity ward, but it was really good to come home. Anna is fine, the baby is fine and the all important breastfeeding seems to be working ok. So we expect easy sailing until puberty!

2002-05-04 We were hoping to go home today, but the baby has what we in Sweden call 'gulsot'. A common affliction in newborn children which causes a yellowish skin tone, that's why he looks like he has such a nice tan. Testing showed that it is not worsening so we'll hopefully be going home tomorrow, oh, and by the way, he's not just sleeping anymore.. it turns out he does know how to cry..

2002-05-03 Our baby son was born May 2, 2002 at 5:16 in the morning. He weighs in at 3565g and is 50cm long, name not yet decided. We were not surprised at all when the doctors and nurses on duty said he was the most beautiful baby they had ever seen! Check out the Baby 2002-05-03 album.
