One Pound More!
Ian weighed into today at 2lbs 11oz - that's exactly one pound more than the lowest weight he was at after his birth. He enjoyed another Roo with Mom today, but it is Dad's turn on Saturday. Ian's oxygen tube is now down to delivering only 21%, which is technically the same 'room' air we breathe and his respiratory levels seem now to be settling down. It's been a good day for Ian, especially as he received his first piece of mail today. His medical insurance company have written to him! I'll let him open it tomorrow.
