Gestatational Age: 35 weeks 2 days
Josh is 11 weeks old today. Seems like yesterday that he almost fit in the palm of our hands, and now he is growing to be such a big boy! He still had some fluid today, so they gave him some more lasix, hopefully that will take care of most of the extra fluid weight. He was up to 5 lbs 7 oz at one point. Yesterday's weight that was posted was really today's so I didn't put a new one up. We will do that tomorrow. The extubated him today and he looks way more comfortable. He is once again on CPAP. He has found his little voice (although it's a bit strained right now from the tube). His surgery is scheduled for Tuesday. We are excited and scared all at the same time. It's a huge milestone for him and will be a definite move in the right direction. We can't wait until he is eating on his own!
