Bernd & Jodi

Bernd is the best daddy Owen could ask for.  While we were in the hospital Bernd was going back and forth between my room and the nursery.  He wanted to spend every second with Owen to make sure he was ok.  The first night we were in the hospital Owen didn’t eat well for the nurses and they ended up pumping his stomach the next morning.  After that Bernd made sure he was there for every feeding.  Every 3 hours like clockwork he was in the nursery feeding his son.  It didn’t matter if it was 3:00 am or not he was there. 

I’m so grateful that Bernd was able to take care of our son in my absence.  Owen’s nurses were great for the most part, but we really feel like Bernd taking over the feeding really helped Owen to do better and helped us get home with him quicker.

Bernd has had serious withdrawals with feeding Owen since we got home.  He can’t wait until we can give him a bottle again so he can feed him.
