Life on the Outside

Drive-through lady: "How old is the baby?"
Mike: "Uh, a couple of days. Well, he's a preemie, so it's hard to tell."
(Me: "Just say two months!")


Pediatrician: "Has he been having wet diapers?"
Mike: "Well, we haven't been weighing them..."
[In the NICU they weigh the diapers for babies who are on IV fluids to make sure they have the right balance between what's going in and what's coming out.]

It's hard to answer the "how old is the baby" question. If you go by the birth date, then people look confused and you end up having to explain anyway.
