Swaddling

Archer had another good day today. His lab tests for the day came back with good results. He is reticking his own blood at a faster pace. He has not needed a blood transfusion in a long time and with better reticking the staff shouldn't need to give him a transfusion. His antibiotics ended today and an I.V. line was removed.
Archer's feedings were increased from 28 ml to 30 ml for a 90 minute time period every 3 hours. His weight for today was still 3 pounds 8 ounces.
Mom and Dad kangarooed today and they received the okay to interact with him more outside of the incubator. They can now attempt to swaddle him after assessments in hopes that it will reduce any fussiness.
