During the night of the 18th, I slept a lot— and I mean a lot. I woke up at around 2 pm. There were a few feedings during the night during which I woke a bit and helped a bit, washed the nipple shields, changed some diapers etc. But I was just so beat and asked Guðrún if I could sleep a bit longer and that I did. I was very happy that she let me, although she herself got up around noon. But I got to sleep a lot more because I slept during the feedings. I'm not sure why I was so tired but most likely it was due to little sleep the previous night.
The good news this day was that the breastfeeding was going a lot better. Guðrún was a lot calmer and Panda latched on quicker. She still cried a bit but we all handled everything so much better and therefore we were all a lot happier. It was a very good day.
The highlight of the day was when I got to put the baby in a wraparound carrier which was absolutely wonderful. She slept on my bare chest for an hour in the wraparound while Guðrún got a good two-hour nap (which she deserved after all the feedings). In the meantime, I watched a little Youtube and got up to date with the blog, which was great.

For dinner, I made meatballs, while Guðrún and Panda were breastfeeding in the living room. We then all ate and breastfed together and had a lovely evening. It was an absolutely great day.
