Day 7 Update w/ pictures





Great news! Baby Boy Newman is OFF the respirator and on CPAP. He seems to be doing well with the transition. He was moved into an isolet today and hopefully will enjoy the peace and quiet.

He is almost back to his birth weight - tipping the scales at 3lbs 14oz. Feedings have not resumed but hopefully they can try again soon. In the meantime, Baby Boy Newman is enjoying a healthy, OU certified and heksher tezdek diet of lipids and electrolytes.

As you can see we've finally posted pictures. A brief warning. Baby Boy Newman has a lot of tubes connected to his body but many are just monitoring his vital signs. We'll get some more photos soon now that he is off the respirator.

As you can probably tell from the tone of the post, David is now involved in the blogging.

Best,
Kerry and David
