Okay, I would take it higher if you can a senior nurse. If you haven’t been told anything that’s so wrong. Xx

I have but I keep getting disjointed answers - one said he could come home today, another said tomorrow 🤷♀️ So we’re really not sure at all!
Oh that's so annoying they never seem to have a clue hopefully his aloud home soon x
You have rights as a parent. Demand answers. They can’t just keep him for no reason. You need to ask why they’re insisting he stay, why he needs to be there, when you can bring him home and what issues you might face brining him home if any!
He's so cute 😍 I hope he comes home soon
Similar but not the same . Demand answers from the department head before you go crazy . You have to be on them . Shifts are changing and it sounds like they’re not keeping up
In the US- we were held longer because the attending doctor who had been the one handling our case for the week didn’t want to hand us off to the weekend shift doctor who wasn’t familiar with the case. She wanted to be the one to discharge us. We were a special case, though. She had worked with our specialists all week and wanted to make sure everything was in order before we went home.
Your baby is adorable congratulations! I hope he comes home soon xx
Is he on antibiotics? If he is he may to stay in to finish them. They wouldn’t keep him in unless they really needed to. Hope you get him home soon!
I don’t have any advice but he is soooo precious !!!!
My baby had to regulate her own body temperature before I could take her home it could be this ? Congrats and hope you hey to take you beautiful buba home soon x
He is so adorable
I’ve not been given the opportunity to feed in demand given that he’s in the hospital - 4 hourly is what the midwives and nurses have put him on in terms of a feed schedule. Also none of the above health issues have been mentioned to either of us.
