So as the days went by Maddex continued to do extremely well. We entered into the "feed and grow" stage, so the staff at the hospital referred to it as.
The main concerns at this point was for Maddex to feed from a bottle to the point of coming off a scheduled feeding program and entering into feeding on demand. It didn't take too long for him to master that and then it was on to having him maintain his own body temperature outside of the incubator. Well he wore his first hat, bundled up and entered into the bassinet phase of the program. I was so excited when he was out of the box...so to speak!
Last and the most important of course was being incident free on the monitors.
When he masters all this...he gets to come home!!!
Here are some picture from those different stages of growth!
