Fourth Week in the NICU

At the end of Week 4, Baron weighed 3lbs 12.4oz measuring 16 1/2"

By the forth week, Baron was really truckin' along. On Thursday, they took out his feeding tube!! He was eating all on his own while keeping his blood sugar up...this was a big accomplishment for our little man. On Friday, he graduated from the isolett to a bassinet. He was maintaining his body temperature all by himself. Also on Friday, we were told Baron would be able to come home Sunday! Before he could come home he had to passed his car seat test and fast for 6 hours while keeping his blood sugar up. He passed both! On Saturday he was given the green light to go home Sunday.
