We're working to establish a good routine with Morgan right now. Things are a bit less stressful now as we have somewhat solved how to remedy her needs based on her crying. Things are going very well right now.
The first night home was pretty rough, but that was mainly due to Dayna's milk not coming in yet. It typically takes 72 hours before the mom begins producing milk. Until that point, the baby primarily gets colostrum from the breast in which does not seem to give them a feeling of fullness. Morgan cried a lot the first day home from the hospital because she was not getting enough to eat. We finally had to supplement Dayna's breast milk with formula to help fill Morgan's stomach. Now, Dayna is producing the real deal and Morgan is quite satisfied.
