Day 31

Today I didn't want to be a NICU mom.  

Although Wyatt gained 20 grams (yeah for 2 pounds, 4 ounces), he had a tough day.  He had many, many de-sats and just didn't seem like he could get settled.  He pulled his feeding tube and nasal cannula out more than once and I only got to hold him for about half an hour because of his de-sats.  It wasn't my favorite day.  

Near the end of the day, he did settle in, his numbers looked better, and the nurse asked if I wanted to try holding him again.  And there I sat, holding that little miracle in my arms for two and a half hours.  All is right with the world.
