I stayed up tonight to do the first late night feed with some expressed milk. This was one of the best feeds I've managed to give Ethan. He drank well, burped quickly mid-way, finished off his mid-night snack and promptly fell asleep on my chest as I sat back and continued to pat those last gas bubbles away. It is indeed amazing to see this little one so perfectly formed (knit in his mother's womb no less) yet still so helpless and completely dependant on me.
Since I'm up, I'm also working on my sermon this weekend on Psalm 42 - what to do when we're feeling downcast and depressed. Ethan is peacefully back to sleep so I shall plod on a little longer before my own snooze time...
