Steve is in Anaheim with his robotics team this week, so I have been spending my time juggling both my kids. Luckily, I have babysitters for the youngest (expensive babysitters), and my mom is here in Salt Lake with us, so between the two of use, we are good.
Henry is doing pretty good. He weighs 1410 grams, 3 pounds and 1 ounce. Yay for not being in the two’s anymore. He has been getting a tour of the NICU, they changed his bed space again. We don’t mind though.
Some other things…
- He is still on vancomycin and gentamicin, only 5 more days of those. His CRP has been coming down.
- Continuing CPAP, which is miserable. He doesn’t seem to mind too much though. We have been weaning it down.
- Eye exam was good. He still has a ways to go before he is fully developed, but doesn’t look like there are problems.
I have found out that Henry likes to sleep with his hands behind his head. He does it every single night I go check on him. Funny baby.
I have been able to help with Hank’s “cares” more. Diaper changes, mouth cleanings, pulse checks. It’s nice to feel like I’m doing something other than just pumping all day. I did get to hold him again the other night while his nurse changed his bedding, but just for a second.
Can’t wait till he gets to go home!

Good, so glad you got to hold him. And 3 lbs? That's great!
