1 Day Old


13th January 2011 - To the new grandparents

Hi folks,

Jonathan Alan Hing was born today around 11:30. He has lots of hair, ten fingers, ten toes, very soft skin and seems to recognise our voices.

Tracy is doing ok, even more so now that she can eat and drink again.

Baby Jonathan is being kept downstairs in the baby intensive care unit while they examine him. He still has his problems with his heart and brain, and they've also found he doesn't have a hole in his bum, so although they haven't told us exactly what the plan is yet, it will most likely involve surgery of some sort.

Tracy got to hold him very briefly after he was born, bit will probably have to wait a bit longer to see him because he's on the floor below. Hopefully she'll be moved downstairs too where the post natal ward is, but since they don't have any beds, she's staying in her own private room in the birth centre.

We're both very excited to have become parents today.

Love,

Tracy and Chris
