Bennett has graduated!

Last night Bennett graduated out of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and into the Intermediate Care Nursery. This is the nursery where he will stay the remainder of his hospital time. There we will learn how to feed and put on some more weight. We were expecting more time in the NICU so we were excited to hear he was doing so well that they transferred him.

Another great part of this new nursery is that I FINALLY got to hold him. I spent 3 hours this morning in a comfy chair snuggling baby :)

He is off all breathing support and only has monitors and a feeding tube left. He will just be working on putting on some weight but unfortunately this is sometimes the longest part of the battle and could take a few more weeks. There is a possibility he may get transferred down to Olympia so we could be closer to home. Until then we will be driving up everyday to be with him in this more comfy nursery.
