Up a bunch of weight to 991g. Hematocrit up to 31 (from 26). This means the Iron and EPO are working.



There are some concerns that his current growth may not be allowing him to catch up to non-growth restricted preemies. An abdominal CAT scan on the horizon to check things out.

Head Ultrasound and ROP (preemies sometimes have retinal detachment issues) tests coming up in the next 7 days.
