Length: 17 1/2'' head circumference: 14'' weight 7lbs 3Oz Lucas took two full bottles for mommy and daddy yesterday. He is doing better now that they increased his oxygen to 40%. He is back on diuretics to help him breathe easier. He is still growing. There's talk of him coming home on oxygen and having a feeding tube put in his tummy so he can get his feedings at home if he's too tired or unable to eat. I try to explain it like this: eating for a baby is like running a mile, eating for Lucas is like running a mile while smoking a cigarette.
Kristin, he is such a precious bundle who has come so far in the last 17 wks. God truly does answer prayers. I'm really looking forward to meeting your little man.
