Good Eye Exam - Jan. 5 2014

Owen had a good week at the doctors offices.  We made it with all his oxygen bottles and monitors to both appointments.  One of them was a couple of hours long, too!

The follow up on the laser eye surgery went great!  The doctor said they are looking like they should at this point.  We won't have to go back for about 3 weeks!  That is great news!

The pediatricians appointment also came with good results.  The 2 hour breast and bottle feedings have paid off and Owen gained about 7-8 ounces!  We just need him to get to 8lbs. so we can cut back to every 3 hours.  He is around 6 lbs. 4oz.!

Praying for:


  • Eyes to continue to heel correctly
  • Gain weight
  • No Infections!


Best friends don't act this way!

  2. GOD is GOOD! So glad that yall were able to go home. I had a lot of other moms with babies in NICU tell me to get a sound machine with white noise to help baby to sleep. In NICU they learn to sleep through machines going off, the sound of oxygen blowing, etc. & then when they get home it is almost too quiet to sleep. I did it and it worked like a charm! I will for sure keep praying for You, Eric, & Owen. God bless you all! -Love, Kara
