No big changes for Wyatt today. Just that he likes to pull hair and he is now at 6lbs 5 oz.
Dear God please let this help him go to room air as mommy and daddy want him home without oxygen.

These are the qualifications for Wyatt to get home too: eating a full bottle or "feed" without problems, be able to regulate his body temperature in a crib, be on room air/ no cords, be at least 4lbs 5oz and pass the carseat test.
Carseat Test: must sit in thd carseat for 90 to 120 minutes or the length of the car ride home (45 min), whichever is longer. During the test, the nurse will monitor your babyβs heart rate, breathing and oxygen level. As long as there is no change and he can hold his head up okay, without problem than he passes!
Oh, and mommy and daddy have to pass the baby CPR, shaken baby and carseat safety tests before he comes home. DONE!
I can't thank the doctors, nurses and everyone that has been caring for us all during this time.
πππ» Thank you so much Wyatt's Warriors, please keep the prayers coming! ππ»π
