***First quick update on mama***

I am home from the hospital and working on pumping for the little burrito so that my milk supply continues to improve.

Now, little one. He is still gaining weight and has showed the doctors and nurses that he is a true fighter as he is doing something that normally NICU/29 weekers don't do, he is sucking on his tube, searching for nipple or food and suckling. He has also been bumped up from 4ml feedings to 7ml feedings every 3 hours. Grow Buddy Grow! He had an XRAY done again today and they believe a pic line might be the next and best line of care for him. Zach and I both agreed that whatever they have to do to make him healthy we will do it. Monday the squirt has a neurological ultrasound of his brain which is done on all NICU babies on the 7th day of their stay. This is going to check for any possible issues he might have being so young. I will be going in to meet with his care team on Monday and talking about his actions of care and will hopefully have a huge update then.

I can't thank the doctors, nurses and everyone that has been caring for us all during this time.

😇🙏🏻 Please keep the prayers coming 🙏🏻😇
