Alfie says.... yo mamma

so today was well quite a momentous day really. yes i'm still feeling a bit crap but the lovely nurse said that it was about time i had a cuddle. Obviously most people who have a baby - slightly bigger than me obviously - can hold their baby almost straight after the birth and really feel that 'connection' between mother and child. unfortunately for me as you'll all be aware i've been stuck in my greenhouse for almost 4 weeks now (yes it is my 4 week birthday on wednesday...) and everytime the nurses have thought about getting me out for some skin on skin time (easy...) i've either dropped all my stats or i just haven't been ready for it so it hasn't happened. i know i'm early and all which is frankly a bit of a nightmare for not just me but M&D as well so today although i'm a little under the weather i thought i'd really try and get some nice solid sats overnight as i overheard the lovely nurse telling dad that if i was ok today then the greenhouse doors would finally open - even if it was only for 2-3 minutes. Anyway as you can see from the pic below it was excellent. I loved it. Yes it was only 20 minutes and as i said before i went a bit bonkers - i missed my greenhouse - but today was the moment it all felt real. Today was the moment i felt like a real baby. Today was the moment i felt my Mum for the first time. Today, I felt amazing.
