I have to write this quick!!

I just called NICU and Brian is off of everything! Today they planned to take him off oxygen and just leave the Cpap (for air pressure) on him today but he is doing so well that they took him off everything early this morning. He just has a feeding tube and some cord going in his belly button to assess his blood gases. I am leaving in a few minutes to the hospital to try and breastfeed. He has to have five successful feeding to be released from the hospital. They won't release him anyways for at least two day but I am so happy right now!

In other news, Nathan has had three normal bowel movements on the toilet!! His poop is suddenly normal. It is such a blessing and the timing couldn't be better. He woke up this morning with a dry diaper and went to the bathroom. He actually held it in until he needed to use the restroom.

My mom has somehow used her magic touch and helped him become regular and potty trained. I honestly don't know how she did it. She got him to eat vegs and fruit that I have never been able to get him to eat. He looks like he has gained some weight as well. Yes, I feel a little like a failure but at this point I am not dwelling. I am just so happy!! I hope he keeps it up when lil' Brian comes home.

Got to run!
