Bath Time in the NICU

I went to the hospital last night and got to watch Carter get bathed. This was my first time watching his bath and he's 3 weeks old. I'm so embarrassed to say that. I'm sad that I'm just now watching his baths. I've been so emotionally unhinged and struggling with everything that I didn't take the time to enjoy things like this. I'm regretting it big time. But since I can't go back in time, it was very exciting being there for this bath. And it was so much fun! I can't wait to bathe him at home one of these days.

Carter gets swaddle baths and they're so nice. He sits in the tub of water wrapped up in a blanket and gets bathed that way. He was in heaven sitting in that warm water. He was a very relaxed baby!

He's wearing a size 1 diaper in this picture. He still fits into preemie diapers, but he goes potty so much that he keeps peeing right out of the preemie diapers. He had to upgrade to something bigger, even though they're huge!
