NICU Day 8

Day 8. Today kicks off week 2 for the newest member of the family. We were starting to worry a little bit yesterday about his stomach digesting his food properly, but everything seems to have improved today. The doctors have resumed feeding him milk in smaller doses. He weighed in today at a hefty 760 grams. Scattered reports of seeing his eyes open continued to trickle in from the nurses. We still have not seen them.

The nurse gave him a bath this evening and he was resting comfortably when I left about an hour ago.

Thanks to the Greenwoods for lunch today. Very tasty. And thanks to "Grandma Ada" for picking up the groceries.
