to finally see and hold him again after I was able to walk around. At
1:30 pm I took my first steps post op, it didn't feel too good but I
am glad to have some independence back! I also graduated to a clear
liquid diet which was like a feast compared to ice chips.
Weston is still being fed by a small feeding tube with formula mixed
with my colostrom and had been digesting it for the last 3 or so
feedings! So they may increase the amount he gets tomorrow which is
one more step in the right direction. We also got some more answers
today about what it will
Take for Weston to come home with us: he will need to be able to eat
at least 8 feedings in a 24 hr. Period unaided and to digest it as
well. So he may be in the Nicu for a little while but he has already
progressed so much in just one day! Andrew is super dad, going between
the nicu and my bed caring for both of us tirelessly! Weston has
definitely bonded with Andrew too, when he put his hand on Weston he
was so peaceful and looked straight into his eyes! It was so precious.
