Yesterday Joshua Turned 1 month Old! In one month he has almost gained 2 lbs, he is up to 5 lbs 8 oz. they have been steadily increasing his feeding and starting today they are going to try to have him feed orally 6 times (out of the 8 for 24 hours). He still has infrequent episode where his heart rate drops or his O2 saturation drops, he is getting better, but he will not be able to go home until he has that under control as well. It shouldn't be too long before he is home with us, I still think my goal of July 4th cold be right on target (Joshua's independence from the NICU), Lisa is skeptical, but what does she know... I think she just doesn't want to get her hopes up. at 34.5 weeks gestation it is amazing we are even having this conversation.
Here is a photo of the first time Lisa got to see Joshua-
