I think the tan was the angle of the camera... lol he is getting lighter... i asked about that and the nurse said that he more than likely wont get his color until after he was to be born.

Hi there! I know that things can change rapidly when they are born so early. And I bet it is really stressful on you. Just wondering how he has been doing? Still holding strong? I have been thinking of you often. Would love to hear any new updates

Hes pretty stable... he had a bacterial infection in his trachea but is on some mucasin for it... he had to have another blood transfusion cuz he has been getting so many gasses and sugar... they take it out and have to put it back in. He still has no brain bleeding... his oxygen has been between 41% to 63%... when he has his cares his oxygen usually goes up to about 70%. he is on a morphine drip to keep him sedated cuz hes way to active. once he starts doing better they will take him off that... So i am hoping in a couple days he starts feeling better... I feel so helpless at times cuz i cant do much to comfort him..

Aww hes so adorable Congrats!! 

Wow - oxygen so low sounds so scary. I only know adult levels   It would be so hard to know they had him on morphine. But if he is "too" active it sounds good to me - like he is a real fighter! Thank goodness there are no bleeds. I worry about him and I don't even know you other than this thread. I think about you all the time and send prayers your way.

Congrats mama and be strong

How is lil man doing?? Congrats and be strong!! He is so cute!!!
