Day 111

Josh was 40 weeks yesterday.. YAY! He didn't breastfeed well yesterday but did a little today. They are still concerned since he has only gained 20 grams during the week so they may put him back on the high humidity nasal cannula (they put him on a regular cannula a few days ago). Today was the first mention of him coming home. It was said that it's possible that he will come home on oxygen and it could be sometime soon, but until he has started gaining weight they won't let him go anywhere, and he has to be taking all of his feeds by bottle/breast. So it could be sooner than we think or longer if he doesn't do well. So keep the prayers up for some weight gain and that he can come home without oxygen!

Dianna, don't lose faith. He is trying his best to come home to his loved ones.
I know that it seems that he's taking 3 steps forwards and 2 steps back.
But he and you guys have come along way since his birth.
God doesn't give us anymore than he believes we can handle.
My family will continue to pray for yours.
You are in our thoughts and prayers daily.

Step by step he's well on his way. These are just road bumps really...after all he's been through..this is just him adjusting to his feedings and building up his strength and weight.

Pretty soon Mama and Daddy!
