Today was a big day for little Brayden. He was taken off the Apnea breathing machine and has been breathing strong on his own all day. They began feeding him breast milk this morning ahead of schedule. Orginally they were just going to feed him fluids for a couple of days. Another milestone is all babies lives was the first poop..lol.
He will still be in an incubator until he can get his weight up to around 2ooo grams or 4 1/2 pounds.
We have been able to hold him all day. He is a little cuddler and loves to be read to. So if have any old children's books we would love to borrow them.
He looks just like dad and just like dad he does not like to be woken up from sleeping. He lets the nursing staff know when he wants to be left alone.

He is a sweet little miracle. I can't wait to hold him and read to him.
