10 Weeks Old

I'm having a great day.
I moved from CPAP to a Nasal Cannula. It is so nice to have that stuff off my face.
 
My clothes are for up to 7 lbs. They are a bit big on me so my Mommy ordered some cloths that will fit me better. I should get my new clothes next week.

I'm eating more and gaining weight. Mommy gave me a bath and held me for over an hour.

9 weeks 4 Days

3 lbs 12 oz

I received some more vaccinations and am doing very well.
My new bed looks a lot like my old bed, but it doesn't have all the temperature controls that were on my old bed. It does still have a small heater, because I still need a little help maintaining my body temperature.

9 weeks 3 Days
3 lbs 10 oz

I am wearing clothes.
 I have a new Infant care bed.
 I am able to maintain my temperature so I don't need my old bed.
I will make sure my parents get some pictures of my new bed tomorrow.
I received my first vaccinations today.

9 Weeks 1 Day

I move to CPAP today.
CPAP is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. It is a big step up from my
SIMV.
I am now forced to breathe on my own. I may lose some weight in the next few days due to the extra work, but that is to be expected. If I do well over the next few weeks, they will lower the pressure. My Parents and Nurses are very excited now that I have taken this important step.
The purple thing in my mouth is my pacifier. Now that I don't have any tubes ( other than a small feeding tube ) in my mouth, I get to enjoy a pacifier.
