Tuesday, August 19, 2008 - Bottle of Milk

Aiden is at 33 weeks gestational age. He now weighs 3 lbs - 12 oz!

The nurses have been able to wean down his oxygen support from 30 to 25%. He has been doing good so far with this new setting. Today he only had a few oxygen de-saturations.

Nurse Sarah had noticed that Aiden seemed irritated and was crying a lot. She decided to try a small bottle of milk. Aiden took the whole bottle!!! This is great news since it is one of the requirements for going home. Lisa tried to nurse him later in the day. He did ok for a little while but seemed too exhausted.


Keep praying for Aiden!

That is great news!! Before to long you'll be sitting at home in the nursery reading bedtimes stories to Aiden. I know you are looking forward to that. I am so glad that Aiden is doing so well, he is growing like a weed!!
Take care,
Tara
