Look Ma! No IV!

Yesterday was a special day. Bryan got to feed Nolan a bottle of breast milk and we got to hold him for quite a while. You can see that he is channeling a unicorn with his little IV on his head.

Good news! The IV is now out as of this morning and, in fact, the cannula that has been supplying him with a tiny bit of extra oxygen is coming out today too. So, then the only thing keeping him in the hospital is his case of Jaundice. As you can see in the photos, he is quite yellow. Just like Warren and Jack were, oh and Bryan and I when we were born. What can I say, we are a Jaundice family. Which is kind of weird since we all have the same blood type, O+.





Anyhow, Nolan is now eating much better. He is still being kind of what I would call a lazy nurser, so I am pumping and feeding him out of the bottle too after we nurse each time.

I anticipate that our little angel will be out of there tomorrow or for sure by Saturday. It looks like he will end up having spent nearly a full week in the NICU. Quite the little adventure!
