APRIL 1ST

Today, Ryan weighed in at 2lbs. 4 oz.!!! So he is growing and they continue to increase his feeding amount. Tonight Lisa (Mom) got to change Ryan's diaper for the first time. It was amazing how tiny the diaper is and how hard it was to change. Ryan was very alert, awake and active this evening. We talked to him and he grabbed on to our fingers with his tiny hands.

He's still having some respiratory issues, but they are improving. We're not doing the skin-to-skin contact right now because he has not tolerated it well, but as soon as his breathing improves, we can try again.

Please continue to keep Ryan in your thoughts and prayers.
