Kai had a good day today!
His head circumference is still 24cm, which is good that it is not getting bigger from the bleeds. His ultrasound went well showing no significant changes. They did however "re-grade" the right side and calling it a 3 instead of a 4 as of now.
He also had a chest xray of his lungs and is getting more lasix to help "dry out" his lungs because they are wet., so he got a full dose instead of just a half.
They still cannot hear a murmur, but will continue to monitor his heart.
He has gained more weight about 20 grams so he's now at 1090 grams, his birth weight was 1040 grams. Feeds were great today too. They bumped him from 2ml to 3ml yesterday and up to 5ml this afternoon! And if he keeps on this track he'll be bumped up to 7ml then from each day after 7 they'll keep giving him more (5 oz per kilo per day).
I also held him today and he did great with that he actually loves it and so do I!
The plan for the morning is to exudate him from the conventional ventilator and give him six hours and see how well he does without it!
He had a great nurse, great day, and all his prayers are being heard!
Thank you!
Thank you!
