This morning my Dad and I went to visit Jay. He was a little restless but overall doing well.
They told me that they would be changing him out of his bed today and that I might have a chance to hold him. So I called later and they told me that it would for sure happen in the evening.
So I didn't go back tonight until about 9pm. They were warming up his new bed and he looked very peaceful. Jay was without his headbandage for the first time because they were able to remove his jaundice lights. So now he sleeps in his little bed with a little quilt over the cover of his bed. Nice and dark and comfortable.

The change over went really well and he handled it smoothly. Getting to hold him was so awesome. He has the sweetest little eyes and for the first time I was able to see his little eyelashes. That was the best medicine anyone could give me.
One thing I forgot to mention in the last post was the overwhelming support I have received from friends all over the country. Some I have never met but have known for years. You all mean so much to me and I hold you close to my heart. Thank you for all your prayers and kindness. The night Jay was born people from all over were pulling for him. I don't know where we would be without all of these prayers. Truly amazing.

Oh Ana!
He's such a sweet little boy! :cry: I love him!
And yes, holding them is just as good for us as it is for them. :love:
Congrats on getting to hold him! It is good for him. K-Care is proven to do majorly wonderful things for those little ones. I hope the hospital promotes Kangaroo care. Have you talked to them? My heart goes out to you and Joe and of course Jay. You have a long journey but wonderful in the end!
Lots of love and thoughts to you, Joe and Jay.
Lots of good vibes going out to you all. Just keep giving him those mommy hugs and he'll grow big and strong.
So sweet!
You got to hold him!!!!!! I was not expecting that when i opened your blog! *teary eyed*
:love:
He's so beautiful, Ana!!! Lots of prayers going out to You, Joe, and your gorgeous little man.
Oh, Ana...he is so beautiful and perfect. He's so sweet and strong like his parents. What a beautiful early Christmas gift for you.
I hope pumping goes well for you. I pumped for Dane for the entire first year of his life (mostly because he was stubborn and lazy and had some frenum/frenulum issues and couldn't get a good suction). Please feel free to ask me anything about that.
You guys are in my thoughts during this stressful time. Every day your little man gets a little stronger than the last (you too)!
:)

Continued prayers to your and your family Ana.

Oh he has beautiful eyes!!! :love:
Continued prayers and good thoughts!
