Dad got to spend some time with Natalie today, and take some pictures. Poor Mum has to remain in bed for 24 hours receiving medicine via drips so she was not able to come and see Natalie yet. Natalie was sleeping most of the time, but had a bit of a stretch and a cry while I was there. She is being kept in an incubator to keep her warm and to block out some of the noise from all the machines which she is attached to. She is still needing some help with breathing from the CPAP (Continuous Positive Air Pressure) machine, because her lungs are still developing. She is only being fed a sugar solution so far, via a tube.
Natalie asleep, about 17 hours old
She looks so little next to Dad's hand
Sleeping peacefully despite the CPAP tubes attached to her nose
A view through one of the port holes of her cot
Natalie's cot and all her gadgets
That headset will be great practise for wearing a caving light in later years
