Prematurity

Rowan towards home

Right now the plan is for me to room in at the hospital with Rowan tomorrow night.  Discharge still won’t be until Sunday, but the room is only available for tomorrow night.  So okay.  I’ll get a meal tray, and some relatively quiet time with my son before he comes home.  The nurses will be around to check on us, but I will do all of his care (temperature, diapers, weights, feeding), though the nurses will do the vitals, of course.

His first pediatrician appointment is Monday morning.

He had his second eye exam this morning, and everything looked great!
