Kento was checked again this morning. Having put on some weight since yesterday, we were all able to leave.

Drink up

There is a strong chance the doctors will want to keep Kento (and my wife) in for the next two weeks. If he can put some more weight on overnight then maybe we can all go home tomorrow.

Baby born

Filed under: kento — adekun @ 11:29 am

This morning at 8:10 my wife delivered our baby. He was a scant 2318 grams and is in an incubator at the moment.

We have named him 憲都 (Kento).
