Roseyface came home today. We had literally less than 48 hours notice, and nothing was set up for her because we were under the impression we would be moved before she got home.

But it was surprisingly uneventful...everything worked right, nurses were ridiculously helpful and sad to see her go, and she's been pretty calm.

So naturally its time for me to pepper you all with infant questions.

What's a good loose schedule for her? She's three weeks old, but still four weeks ahead of her due date. She eats about an ounce and a half per feeding, two ounces max. She was on a pretty good eating schedule at the hospital, but lately has been insisting on eating smaller amounts more often.

She also has been awake quite a bit of the day lately. Not squalling to be held, but laying there watching the big people and making piggy noises. But not sleeping either...and then falling asleep during her feeds.

I'm not freaking out (yet), just want some advice Thanks!
