One whole hour

Cayden has continued to do well since our last visit.  He's up to 5 ml of breast milk every four hours, and they'll continue to increase that by 1 ml every 12 hours until he gets to 11.  His weight was up a couple more ounces today to 2 lb. 8 oz.  Guess that's what lots of milk will do for you!

We did kangaroo care for a whole hour tonight.  Had one little brady episode that got my heart racing, but he came out of it with just a rub on his back.

I've been carrying around a small piece of cloth next to my skin for over a week now.  Tonight as he was being bundled up for the night, we put it on his chest, crossed his little arms over it like he was hugging it, then swaddled him up in his blanket.  I hopes he sleeps well with Momma's scent close by to comfort him!
