Currently, Abe is on a CPAP machine to help him breath (but as of last night he was down to room air!) and he has a chest tube because he got a pneumo thorax (from fighting the CPAP machine- something bigger babies do because they are much stronger than preemies) and they put surfactant in his lungs - which have made a huge difference in his recovery.
We are hoping Abe can come home late this week, but that all depends on him. He is taking my milk every three hours thru a g-tube and as he gets better, I will bottle feed him and then hopefully nurse from there.
I must dash off to the hospital for the day, but I will leave you with a couple of birth pics of our sweet boy.
We can't believe how dark his hair is - just like Papa's! This was his first bath:
And here we are having skin to skin shortly after delivery:
I can't believe how chunky he is!
