HE'S GETTING SO BIG!

Jun 09, 2010 06:30pm (EST)

So today, my son, Dawxen is 1 month & 17 days old. He now weighs 3 lbs. 12.3 oz. He's doing so well. Last night I went in to see him & I also got to kangaroo with him. He loves to be held, the skin on skin contact. He sleeps so well when Mommy's holding him. I also cleaned him up... washed up his face, cleaned his mouth, took his temperature, & changed his diaper. I love being a MOMMY! It's the most rewarding gift in the world. He still has his PICC line in, but I'm hoping, since they haven't needed it for anything since like the weekend, I'm hoping it'll be out soon... it's been like 3 weeks. He also got another iv in the other day after his Arterial line came out. He got a blood transfusion Monday and last night, he looked so much better... a little darker and pinker. That's always a plus. He's been tolerating & eating great. He's now on a consistent 30cc of breast milk every 3 hours since he's doing so well. I'm so proud of Dawxen, all that he's been through. I thank God each & everyday for blessing us with such a wonderful, strong, & healthy little guy!
