quote:
Still having apnea's and heartrate drops and they scare me to death. To see his heartrate go from 150s to 20s, but he always pulls himself out of them and the nurses arent too concerned, its normal in preemies. But its scary! That would scare me to death too. I am glad he is always able to pull himself out of them. quote:
Yesterday he spit up on me for he first time. He did a good job too, he aimed it right and it went sraight down into my bra lol good aim Isaac! quote:
His eye exam will be today to make sure his retina's are attached. I hope you get good news about this exam today! quote:
And his PIC line is out of his foot so we can start giving him baths now. That on the agenda for next visit. That's great news! quote:
Oh and the heart rate drops yesterday while we were there, apparently they were so insignificant they didnt even chart them. They are basically him trying to start doing more than one thing at once. He had one yesterday while sucking on a swab of milk and he forgot to breathe. And he also forgot to breathe while he was pooping... Too many things for a little guy to remember at once. In no time he will probably be pooping, spitting up, eating and who knows what else all at once. quote:
BTW...Klay calls his milk additive chocolate milk. Klay wont drink plain milk so he says Isaac's gonna be like him and have to have stuff put in his milk. It doesnt change the taste or color or anything, just our "funny". Haha that's cute! quote:
They put him back on his nasal cannulas He had three heartrate drops last night, he came back on his own, but they think he needs some help for a little while. Awww, poor little guy. Well, if the help is there I guess it is best he take it! quote:
They are also doing some follow up lab work since it looked like he might be getting sick per his white blood count. So we'll get the results of that later. ((((((((((((Erin and Isaac))))))))))))) Poor little guy. I wish you guys could go home too. It is so hard being in the hospital all the time. And it has been 4 weeks for you guys. (((((more hugs))))))

(((((Erin))))) I'm sure you feel like you're on a roller coaster. So sorry they had to move the feeding tube back and put the cannulas back in.

The ups and downs are pretty normal... even for full-term babies. He has made so pretty amazing progress. Go, Isaac!!! Go, Mommy and Daddy!!! I'm still praying for you all.

((Erin)) I thought of you on one of my visits the other day. I was working with a little guy who was a 29/30 week preemie- he weighed just under 2 lbs at birth and was in the nicu for a while. Anyways, he's just about a year old now (calendar age), and doing great! I know its hard to see past where he is right now, but it does get better.

I haven't posted much, but have been reading. I am amazed at how fast Isaac is progressing! Steady weight gain. No major set backs. Yah, it's a bummer that feeding will have to wait just a bit. Give him another couple days. He's getting there! As far as the "weight loss", it's probably because he had just loaded a diaper. Oh... you haven't experience the joys of a diaper blow out, have you??? Just wait.........
