Growing Big

On Sunday Night, November 14, 2010, Jaxen weighs 3.9 lbs and is 16 inches long! He is doing good!

Big Boy!

Jaxen was moved into a big boy bed today! He has come so far this last week. It has been both scary and exciting. In the past week, he has moved off of his C-PAP, to a high flow nasal cannula, to just a regular nasal cannula. He is on low oxygen and staying stable. I have started feeling like a real mom. I now get to do two feedings a day with him, and they are talking about moving it up to four! It is so precious holding him and just looking at him. It is so different than the times before. I take it all in, at a lot slower pace. He is beautiful.

Jaxen Update

After 4 weeks of being on the ventilator, and finishing all the antibiotics, Jaxen has made it through his bought of pneumonia. He was moved onto the C-PAP machine, and surprisingly, after only two days, he was on a high flow nasal cannula! I couldn't believe it. It seemed way too fast. But he has been doing well, and we will keep hoping that Jaxen keeps in the same direction. He is to 3 lbs. 3oz. He had his first bath on Monday, Nov. 8th. That was a fun experience. He seems like a "real" baby now. And he looks like a baby too!

Feeding Time

This picture was taken on the 19th of October. So it is not an updated picture ( I will get one soon!) He is looking more and more like a healthy little baby. Gaining weight and doing better. (Did I mention he got pneumonia?) Last night he weighed 3 lbs.

Tiny little boy!
