Kangaroo Care

Day 12

Whohooooo no bleeds on the head scan!  I won't have to have another one until I am 36 weeks old (gestational age).  My oxygen levels have been up and down today but I am getting a lot of food.  My feedings are up to 6 cc.

Mommy got to hold me for the first time outside the incubator.  They call this skin to skin contact Kangaroo Care.  I was nice and warm against her and I liked being able to hear her heart beat again.  I think she was nervous since I have so many tubes and wires.  She had gotten used to how small I looked in the incubator but when she held me she felt how tiny I really am.  I won't always be this small.  I am going to grow tall and strong like my Daddy.
