Boring Day

Today has definitely been one of Hunter's boring days. But remember, boring is good.

Hunter is still breathing without the help of CPAP. Nurse reminded us today that it's very possible that he may have to go back on CPAP, many babies do. The way she said it made it sound as if she knew he was on the way back to CPAP and wanted us to be prepared. While we visited today his oxygen was dropping down quite a bit. Hopefully he'll be able to keep his oxygen up overnight and convince the nurses and doctors to keep him off of CPAP.

Because of his varying oxygen requirements there weren't many other changes. They have been talking about trying him with a bottle and moving him to a crib. They didn't do either of these today though because of his oxygen issues, maybe in a few more days.

He lost some weight again, Nurse said it wasn't more than an ounce. His weight has been going down lately, but they aren't too concerned. Nurse said it may just be some swelling going down. His feeding size hasn't changed, but they did increase his calories again. His calories were at 24, they are now at 27, and they can do a maximum of 30. Nurse says this should help him gain weight real good.

Oh, and Mommy got a haircut, it's sassy.
