On the 9th day of NICU...

Well, the good news is that Ethan gets a bath today. The bad news is, that means Ethan has been in the ICU for 9 days. They give the babies baths every 3 days. No procedures again today. Just a bath. Ethan was doing well today. His Jaundice was down again today to a 4 or a 5. Progress...a nurse said today we might be able to take Ethan home on Sunday. That is good as it gets harder and harder to leave him at the hospital every day. Today's pics:
