This blog is to share information about our son, Kellan White. He was born 9 weeks 2 days early. Kellan is in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. We want all our friends and family to be able to watch Kellan's progress and growth!

More Baby Steps

Today I was able to breast feed Kellan five times! It was so exciting! He did great. We did five feedings in a row and he handled it great!
Even with an increase in breast feeding, Kellan weighed 4 pounds 12 ounces! Sometimes they worry that it takes too much energy to breast feed and they burn too many calories.
Kellan is still on .6 liters of oxygen. However, they were able to wean the concentration of oxygen to 30%. We are moving in the right direction.
This picture was taken after Kellan worked hard all day... he's worn out!
