Day 8- September 1st

Kenron is getting so big. It's crazy to look back at his pictures and see what drastic changes he has made. He is almost back up to his birth weight today. He weighed in at 3 lbs 13.5 oz. He was still able to spend the day with no bili lights. His biliruben levels went back up a bit but not high enough for him to go back on photo therapy. They will check him in the morning and see if he'll need to start again. Dana had to take care of a few things in Duchesne but she finished them up and was able to go back to Salt Lake today. She got there pretty late so she was the only one allowed to go back and visit him. Kenron loved the alone time with mommy. He showed her how much he missed her by pooping all over her when she tried to change his diaper. He shot all over everything- it was so bad that the nurses had to change his entire incubator. They are going to continue letting Dana breast feed Kenron each day so he will become familiar with it and know what to do. They are still feeding him through a tube and they started adding calories to his milk so he can bulk up. He is still getting 31 ml each feeding.
