A picture slideshow of baby Erik from birth to 3 months. He entered this world 11 weeks early due to IUGR and because his mommy had preeclampsia. I am his Aunty and I am doing this for him. I love you Erik. He was 1 lb. 3 oz. at birth and 12 inches long.
Here is video of Erik that I took inside the incubator. I also turned it to face us briefly, so we can see what he sees when he opens his eyes:0)
Erik is 15 days old in this video and weighs 1 lb. 4 oz.
Erik is 19 1/2 weeks old now and in this video he is just hanging out on his new playmat we got him. He is almost 6 lbs. now and is 17 inches long. He has made a smooth transition from the NICU to home.
Erik is finally home!! He spent 116 days in the NICU (that's 16 weeks and 4 days folks). His last weight recorded was 5 lbs. 11 oz. This is video taken almost 2 weeks after he came home. He is 4 months old.
Here is Erik with his paternal grandpa. Erik is 12 weeks old and weighs 4 lbs. Erik also has a website www.babyeriksprogres s.blogspot.com if you want to hear his story.
Erik during his final days in the NICU and then him at home. He spent 116 days in the NICU and came home on June 24th!! We are so proud of him. He is a miracle baby!!
