Five Pounds (For Real)
CURRENT WEIGHT: 5 LBS, 0.08 OUNCES
Truman gained 25 grams yesterday, which makes him 5 lbs for real, rather than just holding onto swelling from surgery. That also means he is done dropping water weight after surgery and on back on the path of real weight gain!

Way to go Truman! And mom, you deserve a lot of that credit for pumping and breastfeeding these past 3-4 months. Hope you all have a great weekend and that everything is still on for next week!
Wow! I hope you have everything ready at home for little Truman! He's on his way!
thats such good news! I hope you keep updating once you get your little guy home
I've been following your blog from the beginning when I heard about it on my ivillage message board - just wanted to say how happy I am for your family - Yeah Truman!!
I've been following Truman's story since he was born. I almost had a 25-weeker with my first pregnancy, but he held out until 37 weeks. Truman's story has been close to my heart as I have seen what my little one would have gone through. Way to go , Truman, and mom and dad! You've almost made it home!
This is amazing, so happy to hear that he has reached the 5lb mark! Can't wait to see photos of him at home where he belongs :)
You don't know me from a hole in the wall, but I've been following Truman's blog. I got your story from the message board and I pray for your little guy. When I read he was going home, my jaw dropped and I got excited for you guys! I feel like I know you and when he comes home I will get to see him LOL! He is so cute and he is doing so amazingly. I hope and pray good things for your new little family. Way to go Truman, you grow, grow, grow little man! :)
Awesome! What terrific news! I just loved seeing those dear pictures. You have done so great! Isn't it nice to know that your hard work with pumping/breastfeeding is paying off? Great work Mom!
Alright Truman!!! You are the Champ, and you are a very beautiful baby. I look forward to ready the post stating Truman is going home!! God bless to you and our family. I know God as grated your family a true miricle. Please keep us posted even once truman is home.
Ben and Kara, Only a few more days until you are all home. OH MY GOODNESS, WHAT A JOURNEY AND BLESSING. Congratulations!!!!! Not much more needs to be said other than thank you, thank you, thank you Lord. We will be in touch. All our love, Aunt Cynthia and Unkle Steve
Congratulations! We have delighted in routinely checking this site and it has been an incredible hospital journey. The pictures are heartwarming and you have one cute little guy. Our thoughts and prayers will continue to be with you and we are looking forward to future updates of Truman and family AT HOME.
Wow, what a story. I was told last week that I will probably be delivering my baby at only 25 weeks along because of my cervix. I have to hold on for 2 more weeks with strict bedrest (I'm 23 weeks now). I went onto a message board for insight and a lady sent me this blog. I just finished reading the entire thing and the tears are still running down my face! Congrats!! I am so happy to hear that everything worked out. I hope all goes well you all deserve a very special Christmas. I think that everyone who reads your story just falls in love with Truman!
