Last night when my husband and I were visiting Johnny in the NICU (Level III Nursery), we were told that he was being transferred to the Special Care Nursery (Level II)!
This is great news, Johnny is progressing quickly!
He is 5 days old today.
John and I got to hold him last night. John was able to hold him very briefly when he was first born, but it was my first time!
He also opened his eyes for us while we were there. John had seen him do it before, but that was another first for me too.
Usually when I had gone to see him he had a mask over his eyes because he was under the lights.
He is no longer under the lights and he is making a lot of improvements. One Nurse told my husband that he has almost returned to his birth weight!
He's been able to breath on his own since birth and his blood/oxygen is great! He's just doing so wonderfully.
They're starting to feed him today through a line into his stomach and they're starting him on my breast milk! Yay.
