He did his car seat test at 12 hours and was off all monitoring (he drove them insane pulling off his leads). They only kept him because of jaundice, he was in the NICU for 5 days total. They pissed me off when they put "mother's narcotic drug use" as the reason for his prematurity. I did not want to be on morphine but 12 weeks of him kicking my gallbladder was not fun. I had emergency gallbladder surgery when he was 9 days old. No bad side effects for Robbie, but he is still underweight. Our family doc thinks that will always be the case.


That would piss me off too. Glad you and him made it through everything safe and sound. When he reaches puberty you may be surprised by a major growth spert, but then again he also may always be built on the slimmer side.
