Baker’s Current Home

The little guy is scheduled for another spinal tap tomorrow, to rule out any infection. We will also get the results back tomorrow of today's cranial ultrasound. He had another good day today. Since I don't have much of an update I figured I could talk more about his current home.


On the left of the picture you will find all the machines that regulate the flow of his medications, IV nutrition or TPN, and Lipids. In the middle is his isolette. The isolette regulates his body temperature, since he can't on his own yet and kind of protects him from the outside environment. On the right is his Ventilator. His monitors are above the vent (not in picture).

He also moved up to the next size blood pressure cuff!!! Here is a picture of his first one. We got to take it home for his baby book. It seriously barely fits around my ring finger.

It really is neat how all the medical equipment is miniaturized.

This means that Baker is gaining weight and getting stronger. I like to see that his home is looking more like a baby nest!
Keep up the good loving mom and dad! I check on you guys almost daily!
Hugs, Scotland and Katie
