Here is a video link (below) of our little guy. I set up a YouTube account in which I have posted quite a few short videos of Henry. If you watch this one, you should be able to get to our page where there are more. Video number 11 is right after he is born, I look like a balloon-pretty awful. I had no idea how swollen I was until I saw the video.

We are still at the hospital, Henry is doing wonderful. He is considered a "Grower and Feeder" now, basically he is just here to gain weight. He is still in an encubator and eating through a feeding tube that is in his nose for every other feeding but I am able to use pumped breast milk for all feedings now. I spend most of my time pumping and feeding.
We were very relieved to talk to the dr. today, she reassured us that all will be perfectly fine, which we really needed to hear. She is guessing we will be here at least 5 more days, tomorrow is Christmas Eve, so maybe early next week. We are still staying in the same room and everyone is really nice. My swelling is still bad and now my back hurts pretty bad, which I think is due to my ever growing boobs.
