Day 22

Gestational age: 27 weeks 3 days
Weight: 730 grams
1 lb 9 0z.

Josh is doing about the same.. Still having desats and the feeds are up to 1 cc an hour and he seems to still be tolerating them well. Dave got to hold him tonight for the first time. I held him and then went to pump (and get some fresh stuff for the next 24 hours) and Dave had his time with the boy. Dave must have been rigid sitting there (fear of moving)... his arm got cramped and is still hurting now. I'll post a picture tomorrow of Dave holding the little man.

Good for Daddy- I'm sure Joshua was very happy to be in those nice Daddy-arms. :)

Great to see that he is now heavier than his birth weight.
We think of you often and am following your blog daily. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
