Day four saw us in a favourable position to come home and manage on our own. We have breast-feeding under control, we know how many layers of clothing to use in which temperatures, we practiced bathing, nappy-changing and burping. The midwives on Ward 6 of Nelson Hospital were absolutely amazing and have prepared us well. We packed our gear and said goodbye… off for Poppy’s first ride in the car!
