After 12 days of patiently waiting, Oliver made enough progress that yesterday his nurse let me hold him!!! It was the best 45 minutes of my life. It was quite the ordeal to get him into my arms including 2 nurses to move the lines and equipment and 1 nurse to move him. He tolerated it well and even opened his eyes and looked at me. At first they told me that I would have to wear gloves so I did but then the nurse came in again after talking it over with other nurses and said that I could take them off and that might be good for him to actually feel touch without gloves on. I may be partial but I think I have the most beautiful baby in the world. Here's some more pictures of him.
He's wide awake
