Leo's Motto to Live By: Slow and Steady Wins the Race!

Leo's doing great this week.  He's 5 lbs 5 oz!  He had another eye exam to detect ROP and his eyes are finally mature and did not have the disease - so he can no longer get it!  He doesn't need to see an eye doctor for another year!  When it comes to feeding, Leo's definitely taking his time.  He's currently attempting half of his feeding orally, but does not take the entire bottle most the time.  Eventually he'll get there.  He's taking that same route when it comes to his oxygen.  He is SLOWLY weaning his way down to room air.  In fact he was in room air for a couple of hours today.  But,  beyond that he really likes a little extra, especially when he's feeding.  He's having such a great week that they've decided to give him his first round of vaccines!  He will get them on Thursday.
