After one final shot of antibiotics Braddock was discharged from the hospital yesterday at 4pm.
We were so excited. Here are some pictures of his first day home with mom.

Out of the NICU

Last night they released Braddock from the NICU back up to the nursery for healthy babies. We were able to get a room right across from the nursery and keep our baby in our room overnight. It was so exhilirating to have our little family together in the same room. We couldn't have been happier.

Braddock will still need several more days of antibiotics, so he will not be able to go home with us until Wednesday night. We can't wait for Wednesday.

Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers. We felt uplifted by them and are confident that our little boy is a healthy one.

Braddock needs some special care for the next 7 days. He is currently in the NICU because of a fever that persisted on Wednesday. He will need testing to rule out the most harmful causes of the fever and antibiotics and treatment to help support his developing immune system. We will not be taking him home tomorrow like planned. We hope and pray that these next 7 days give us the healthy little boy we dream of. Thank you for your prayers and support. We need it.
