Today, Mom got to hold Loki against her chest. He was gently placed there as she lie down, with some blankets to keep him warm. Photos up in a few hours.
After his unexpected removal from and return to the ventilator, the settings on it were high. So for the last few days, the machine has been doing more work. Today those settings are down to where they were late last week and over the weekend.
He is up to 775 grams. He is clearly more chubby now, especially in the face. A little math showed me that he needs to gain about 2% per day to be on track to normal weight by his due date.

Mom! Super! That must have been a beautiful, and probably very emotional, moment for you. It's so special to feel your baby's skin on your skin. We hope that there are lots of these moments to come! And it's good to hear that Loki is gaining some weight. The respirator does help him to gain weight en to develop, so eventually he can do without the respirator.
