Due Date - Ashlyn (video)

Today on her due date, Ashlyn weighs 3250 grams (7 pounds, 3 ounces). She is a very calm little baby and loves to snuggle, preferring to sleep against your chest. She is not allowed to take any food by mouth yet, but she will be able to come home tube-fed. She misses having her brother share a bed with her and she looks forward to the day that they are re-united!
