Tonite's visit

Tonite I was able to do kangaroo care with Braden. That is skin on skin contact placing the baby on your bare chest. That is a bonding technique that shows several benefits to both mother and baby. Braden handled it very well and seemed to really like it. Braden had a spinal tap today and the initial results are good. We have the 3-5 day growth test to pass before we get final results. Dr. Rojas will be consulting Vandy tomorrow about next steps on Braden's yeast infection meds and taking out his broviac line. The next head ultrasound will be sometime next week. Braden is still weighing in at 2lbs 14 oz and feedings are 20cc's. Way to go on the weight gain little man. We are so proud of him. :-)
