I Am One Month Old... WOW







Yesterday was a completely normal day for me - OK well, maybe with more desats than usual but I'm getting tired of this tube down my throat... maybe I should pull it out again. Hmmmm

Yeah, today is my One Month birthday. Mummy & Daddy were happy to see that my weight is 3 lbs, 9 oz today. I feel like I am getting plenty big and everybody seems happy with the growth that I have had. I think maybe I am strong like Batman now..... My goal? Superman....

I also decided that today was the day that I would pull that tube out again and I managed to extubate myself. WOO HOO. My neonatal RN then decided to give me a whirl on the CPAP again and not reintubate me. That made me really happy... Mummy & Daddy too! Before they did that tho, they gave me my first real tubby. That was a whirlwind of water, and soap and my hair getting washed... NICE. I LOVE HAVING MY HAIR WASHED!!!! I settled in OK on the CPAP, tho I hate that too, but I breath better on it than I did the ventilator believe it or not.

They will watch me really closely for the next couple of days to see what I do...I am going to try to behave myself so that they will let me keep going without that tube. :-)
