(1,631 grams or 3 lbs. 9.5 oz.)
I'm getting so good at this breathing thing. Today they were able to wean down another one of my ventilator settings. Just one more setting to go and I should be ready to go off my ventilator again. Tonight's Respitory Therapist thought that we might be able to skip the CPAP and go straight to the "Nasal Cannula," just a tube that goes to my nose. We hope so, but we'll just have to see! Mom and Dad gave me a bath tonight. Mom washed me (with Neutrogena and a cotton ball) and Dad dried me off. I got a little ornery during my bath but then Dad swaddled me up in a warm blanket and held me for a long time. I loved it! Dad couldn't believe how firm my little grip is. I was holding on to his finger and squeezing it tight. I just wanted to show him how tough I am. Besides, we guys have to stick together:)
