Belated realization.

About five o'clock Michael and I had a horrifying thought: when had we last changed Colin's diaper? In Williamsburg, that's when. Nine hours ago.

It was barely damp.

It turns out that when you're the kind of nursing mom who doesn't feel letdown, it's possible to nurse all day without noticing that your baby isn't drinking much.

Now we're doing a teaspoon of Pedialyte every three minutes. We're supposed to call the doctor back at eight.

Oh no! I think it was about that age that Henry was in the hospital overnight for rehydration. Jeff stayed with him all night, since Edward was a tiny baby. It was much harder on us than it was on him. I think he considered it an adventure, FWIW. I certainly hope it doesn't come to that.
