3 weeks old today!

Tobias has had a good day today. He now weighs 2 lbs 3 3/4 ounces and is looking good. His belly is positively round. He caused some excitement in the wee hours of the morning by trying to remove himself from his vent- and proving he is not quite ready for that yet- but has been very well-behaved since then.I was able to hold him this morning (for the second time!) and he did just fine. No alarms or funny numbers, just settled down and napped. Quite a change from the boy who did not even want to be touched. And he continued to be fairly stable all day without a lot of the usual yo-yo numbers that keep the nurses running in and out. He was displaying some of his old tricks before I left tonight, but I imagine we wore him out.

He also continues to do well with his feedings and is finishing up the first round of his heart medicine today. He will have an ultrasound tomorrow to see how his heart is doing. Other than that, the immediate plan is sleep and grow.
