Thursday we acquired another baby. Flaynez is one month old and weighs 2 kg. She may be delayed mentally because she doesn't seem coordinated enough to breastfeed. She also has club feet and we are wondering if she can see well or at all. Right now we are feeding her via NG tube throughout the day and night. So now it's mama Annelies and mama Ryna as we do rounds at the hospital and work at the clinic. We still have the other baby, Wegina. However, Wegina is gaining pounds like a sumo wrestler. I've given her the name Miss Piggy. I think she is going to do fine.
