Jack's doing so great!
His jaundice is cleared up. He is not using a blender or any other breathing aid. It's so nice to see more of his face without all the contraptions - it's so delicate and peaceful. He drank 10ccs of my milk from a bottle last night with the nurse and today at 2:30pm I fed him 15 of his 29 ccs from the bottle. Their goal is for him to drink 39 ccs in a feeding. He is currently 4lbs.9oz. I've gotten to hold him for 2 hour chunks the last few days, which has been wonderful. We kangarooed for the first time yesterday. He should be able to go to the breast in the next couple days. Today he is working on staying warm without his incubator. His temperature is at the borderline level with a hat, long sleeve shirt and blanket on. Thank you for your prayers and help. Ethanael's caregivers have done a huge service to me and I so appreciate having people he knows and I trust to care for him while I go to the hospital. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
