He is beautiful and looks amazing! My mom works with preemies and he really looks great, I've seen a lot of them over the years. Hope you feel good soon!
You guys are the best. He is pretty perfect Last night I got to do skin to skin contact, where little Will lay on my chest under my hospital gown. It was great. He has to wear a CPAP machine for a little longer, which he hates and is always trying to pull off. I don't blame him! He really likes his pacifier, so I'm encouraged that he will be breastfeeding soon.
They switched me over from moraphine to Percocet, and I feel sooooo much better. I'm able to get up and move around pretty well, which is important when you have to take trips to go see your baby! I'm being discharged today, but I only live 15 minutes from the hospital and I'm sure I'll be spending lots of time in the NICU. Can't wait until I get to bring my little guy home!
Blerg he seems so big and strong already! I hope he gets to go home soon and that you can start BF soon, as that will help him even more. Gorgeous baby boy and many blessing to your family!

Definitely read CRAP machine and I was all "Awww. That poor baby doesn't know how to poop."
ETA: Because obviously, they would call such a device a crap machine. Totally logical conclusion.
Thanks for the bump, lolo - I missed the picture the first time around!
Baby Will looks amazing!!! He actually does look really strong & healthy, despite all the wires & machines. I'm so glad to hear he's pulling at the CPAP machine and taking to the pacifier - all sound like good signs!!
So so happy for you and your family. I hope you can bring him home soon!
More pics! He's off his CPAP (not CRAP) machine, he's eating, he opens his eyes every once in awhile. Oh, and did I mention he's adorable? He's adorable!!!
Re: Baby William Update (Now with more update)
Blerg he is soooo sweet and precious!! Back up every picture you take of him in 4 different locations.
omg gifs aren't working at work but I had the perfect combo of Rachel McAdams sobbing, then James Franco winking.
Hope you're doing well too!
