10 Days or So We Hope!

After today, if all goes well, we only have 10 days until N gets to come home.  I'm hoping that it's only 10.......

When we got there this afternoon, he was super fussy.  His nurse, one that we really, really like, had had him today and said that he had been good.  When we got there, he was "asleep", but waking up.  He seemed to be having lots of tummy troubles from about 4:30-6:10 and would get calm for a few minutes and then would get upset and stick his stomach out and get real tense.  Not fun at all.  :(  The nurse gave him some sweeties, which is basically just sugar water, something that makes him happy, and it kept him quiet for a while.  He got pretty happy for a few minutes while Dave was holding him because N kept on passing gas.  He was giving us the sweetest smiles right after the super stinky gas and I would love to say that I got them on camera, but I only got a few.  I will have to load the pics tomorrow, though.

I'm just hoping his fussiness doesn't mess with his scores and cause him to stay longer.  I almost dread Dave calling in the morning and hearing bad news.

He's been moved up to the NICU unit (to know why, check the end of yesterday's post) and it's a big change.  The "real" NICU makes the NICU step down look like a closet.  N is right beside two babies that are also step down babies, so we didn't get to peek at any super tiny babies tonight.  Maybe tomorrow...
