I don't know.
I do know that William has made himself quite at home and is feeding and sleeping at regular intervals.
He even sleeps for significant portions of the night.

Lots of homely food this week. Soups, stews, nothing too spicy. There's plenty of time for that.
An old favourite, an easy mid-winter warmer:
Potato and Leek Soup.
Slice two leeks. Sweat them in a little olive oil in a big pot while you peel and chop five potatoes into cubes. Then add them to the leeks, add a Star chicken stock cube and add water to just below the tops of the potatoes. Cook until vegetables are tender. Puree. Add a cup of full cream milk.
Reheat gently. Serve with a good sprinkling of grated mild cheese - I use Kraft cheddar - this is not dinner party food, it's comfort food. So pile it on.

The first song I sang to William was Wee Willie Winkie, of course. He blinked as if to say, What on earth is THAT all about? T. prefers Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. She is cooing it right now.

William's first dining out experience was brunch on a sunny morning at Universita Restaurant. OK, he didn't actually sample the menu but he was in attendance, albeit asleep, in his royal blue pram with the white wheels and the gingham quilt trimmed with lace.
