much better
Pierson was doing much better yesterday. He was able to get off the nasal cannula yesterday afternoon and they started giving him milk again. I was really happy about that because he kept going to town on his binky and could tell he was hungry and wanted food in his stomach. When I went back in the afternoon, his oxygen saturation levels were the best I have ever seen them. The doctor showed me the X-rays of his chest and he doesn't believe that Pierson has pneumonia, as was mentioned to my mother-in-law the night before. Also his lab work has been coming back good, so maybe not an infection. Which would hopefully mean getting the iv out soon. He is such a fighter. Yesterday he was 35 weeks, tomorrow 4 weeks old.

ReplyDeleteI'm so glad he's doing better! That is scary stuff--but he definitely is a little fighter =)
ReplyDeleteGood grief! I was hoping along with you to hear you say that all is well. I hope that this is the beginning of everything being great. Glad to hear that he is doing better. I hope that you are doing well too with all of this. You are in our prayers. Love you!
ReplyDeleteThat's great news. I hope things continue to improve. I can't believe he's past the 4 week mark. Has it really been a month? Wow.
