It's getting hot in here

Truman is doing so well he is 3lbs 14.5oz! He also has been being weened off of a controlled air environment, by the nurses lowering the temp in his isolette every 3 hours if his temp is good. He has done so well the expect him to be in an open crib by tomorrow at some point! Truman is also now nursing successfully twice a day which is all we have tried so he has time to build up enough strength to do all his feelings. When he nurse he gets about half a feeding and then the rest in his NG tube which is really good for him only beginning to really latch and get milk for about a week. Also now that he has established nursing on Monday they will start giving him bottles when I am not there to nurse! We are so happy with his progress. Ohh and did I mention he's in clothes now!!! Pictures to come tomorrow!
