What a whirlwind week!
Hayley got to be reunited with Kevin on Tuesday and has been able to see him every day since! She was so overwhelmed with love and gratitude to not only hold her son but to see how much Justin has learned during the time she had to be away. He is very confident and hands-on with him. He was able to show Hayley what cords go where and how to take him in and out without tangling up the wires, and he changed his teeny tiny diaper like it was no different than changing Ryan! š
- Feedings continue to go well. He gets a donated breast milk via a feeding tube that’s screened by the hospital but he is also given some additional nutrients
- He eats about 1oz at a time and eats every 3 hours
- They do a ‘venting’ process with his feeding tube between feedings to help release any air in his tummy (that can happen with the CPAP machine he’s on)
- Hayley got to give him a “bath” and change his diaper this week which was a full load š© and today he weighed 3.34 lbs
- Justin and Hayley are the only ones that have been allowed to visit him.
