Just a short post for Christmas Eve....Sean isn't feeling great, so it was just me up at Yale today. It was very hectic. There was a new baby (again) coming in, and they started rounds late, so I didn't get much time with Matthew before I had to come back and start making the food for tomorrow.
The Good
Matthew had a stable day today, and has continued to tolerate his feeds. They will be increasing his feeds to 33cc. They switched his nose piece to the ram canula, which is a little bit more comfortable for him (that's what is in the picture). We are hoping he continues to tolerate it as we get to see more of his face! It is still CPAP, but just a hair less invasive.
The Bad
Matthew continues to need pressure support, so it will be at least a few more days until he goes on the nasal canula. His oxygen saturation requirements have also changed now that he has hit 34 weeks, so he gets more oxygen. Hopefully he can get back down to room air quickly. He will be without Lynn and Cassie (his night primary) for the next few days though :(
The Ugly
No Ugly today for Matthew - fingers crossed it stays that way
