Hunter Makes Big Progress

Ever since Hunter came off of CPAP it seemed that he wasn't really making much progress towards getting better. Today he decided it was finally time to take that first step and I am very proud of him for it. His oxygen has been running at a high pressure (3 liters) ever since they put him back on it. Today they lowered it down to 2 liters and he is doing just fine.

When they turned that down they had to increase his oxygen percentage so he's up to around 75% - I'm sure that will start going down though. Today he spent some more time in his bouncer, he really enjoys that. Here are some random happenings:

Hunter weighs 7 lbs, 2 oz.
Hunter is wearing newborn-size diapers now, no more preemie.
They tried to feed him, but he started desaturating so still no bottle.
He is adorable and the nurses remind us of that every day.
