Yesterday marked Jackson's one month birthday! It was four weeks ago he decided to make his early arrival and took residence in the NICU. His new neighbor, a preemie too, reminded us of how far he has come. Jackson has been packing on the pounds at just over 4 lbs 3 ozs and has switched from a high calorie formula to a regular formula.
And today Jackson had a developmental exam which compared him to other preemies. They looked at his reflexes, his muscle tone, visual tracking, and feeding cues. I can see this being the first of many exams to come in his life and like all parents we were eager for him to do well. We can proudly report in almost all categories he was on track or excelled for his age. JD was later quoted as saying, "That Shiznit was Easy!"
