Today was Maksim's first bath. Yes, it has been 5 1/2 weeks, but he couldn't have one until he was at least 1000 grams. Logan and I both got to be there. I took a few pictures while Logan gave him the "bath." Because of the PICC line, he couldn't actually be set in the water, so he really just had a sponge bath, but it was something, and he should smell a lot better now! :) Maks loved it, and he was relaxed the whole time. I still can't believe all of his cute blonde hair!
During rounds today we got some good news! They are starting to slowly wean the artificial nutrition. They started today by discontinuing the lipids. That is definitely a step in the right direction, and tonight he is up to 16 ml of breast milk every 3 hours! Keep it up, Maks!
