They put Josh back on the SNIP for awhile. He was having apnea/brady episodes, and needed to be back on something that was better for him. They will try again in about a week or so. They increased his caffeine and hopefully that will help him out too. They also increased his lipids (fats) and sugar to get some more weight on him. The more he grows the more likely he will be able to tolerate the CPAP and breathe more on his own. We still have lots of time and he is little yet.
The fellows (pediatricians who are training for neonatology) have all set Josh up with a little preemie in the next room... it's very funny. She is 29 weeks but weighs less and they say she is a cutie from a good family.... No cobedding until 34 weeks we were told... LOL.
Love to all. I promise to put some new pictures up soon!
