My NICU Graduate's JourneyHe was born at 4 lbs 6 oz. He was born at 38 weeks but was so tiny they decided to take him in. For the first day or two he couldn't keep his heat and glucose up. He had a feeding tube for 1 day. Four days later he got to come home and meet the rest of his family.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?He has grown so fast and is meeting all his weight goals. He has grown to be almost 4 times is birth weight in only 5 months. He is a rock star!
