Bathtime Baby




Momma Post:
With Willa's remaining umbilical cord falling off on Monday, we were given the green light by a Kaiser nurse to finally bathe her. Willa has a lot of dry skin. More so than Ruby did. This may be partially because Willa was several days past her due date. I've been anxious to start my mother cat behavior of grooming my young. So today I designated as bath day. Since Joan and I first bathed Ruby, I waited until Matt came home for lunch today, so he could have the honor. Willa seemed a bit surprised. Then was moderately vocal on the experience.

On Monday we had an appointment with the lactation consultant/nurse at Kaiser. Willa now weighs 8 lbs. 6 oz. and her bilirubin level (what causes Jaundice) is at zero percent.
