Babies Birth Alphabet

A= Aftercare After Birth (How they act after you finish giving birth.):

During delivery, Jay was attentive. He constantly made sure I was ok whether that was asking me or the nurses/midwife's to know how me and the baby were doing.
After I finished giving birth and I was able to go home, Jay made sure that i was comfortable. He wouldn't let me lift a finger so it was like I had my own personal waiter.

B= Baby (Who is the baby more like?):

According to my mum the baby looks exactly like I did when I was born, but I can definitely see Jay's freckles starting to show.

C= Care Taking (Who takes care of the baby more? Do you have someone else take care of the child?):

Jay and I have a good system. While Jay is on paternity leave Jay takes a lot of the shifts giving me time to relax before he goes back to work. When he does go back I tend to look after the baby more for obvious reasons.
During the night I take the most shifts, letting Jay sleep because of work, but he definitely takes his turns.

D= Delivery (How they act when you are in labor, do they stay in the room or outside the room?):

Honestly during labour Jay was a mess. I had woken up in the night due to my waters breaking. Jay was panicking the whole time, said he hated seeing me in pain.
Once at the hospital Jay doesn't leave my side once, he holds my hand the whole time and when it's time for me to push, Jay let's me squeeze his hand hard.

E= Emergencies (How do they act when something happens to the baby? If something happens during labor how do they react?):

Thankfully the labour and delivery is pretty smooth, however once baby is born neither Jay or I can hear the baby cry. Of course I'm worried but Jay is pacing up and down asking if the baby is ok, turns out the baby was just a quiet one and was absolutely fine.

F= Friends/Family (Who visits you in the hospital?):

Both my parents come to visit me after I had the baby, and although Will was working he would pop his head in to cheek on us.
Jay even had the whole of intelligence out to come and see me and the baby.

G= Gender(s) (What do you have?):

A girl Jay and I named her Amelia.

H= Hair Color (What hair color does the baby inherit):

She is born with Jays brown hair.

I= Illness (How do they react when the baby gets sick for the first time? How about when the baby is ill for a while?):

Amelia was born healthy, but developed a reflux, which meant that she would often throw up after she has eaten. Jay at first was scared there was more to the story, after all Amelia is he's princess. I however was more laid back, telling Jay to calm down.
After a few months Amelia caught a cold which again Jay was super worried about because it sounded like Amelia was struggling to breathe, even though Will told us many times that she was ok. While she had the cold Jay would be up every hour of the night checking up on her.

J= Job (When do you go back to work?):

I wanted to go back soon because I was so bored at home. I asked Voight if I could do paper work after being home for 3 months. He agreed and also allowed me to bring Amelia with me.
After a year we put Amelia into nursery and I started to work out again and would do the odd case here and there until I felt ready to come back full time.

K= Kisses (Do they kiss the baby?):

Jay is very affectionate with Amelia, always giving her kisses on the head or cheeks and he can't just give her one. Everyone notices how sweet he his with Amelia, he even becomes more affectionate to me (if that was even possible).
