67th Day in the NICU

(Mom)

Little one is doing very good. We are hoping that he gets his vent tuberemoved sometime within the next week or so. Monday he is 10 weeks old (and38 weeks gestational today, July 4th, so he is almost to his original due date! ).Finally we are starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel as far asNICU life goes. Soon enough he will be coming home and I am ratherterrified. I really hope they let me have an apnea monitor for a few weeks.I am so used to him having 24/7 care that I am afraid I wont sleep at all tomake sure he keeps breathing.

He is now 4 pounds 7 ounces and has a cute little Buddha belly going on.Still weirded out that he is so darned blonde.
