Great day with Henry today! We did kangaroo for 2 hours...my butt and arms were sooo sore. 4 pounds doesn't sound like alot but my arm will highly disagree! He slept the whole time i was holding him and his lungs stayed very saturated off the machine, I held oxygen close to his face to help him out a little but he did so good! He is loving his new crib, he looks so happy and much more comfortable.
They took him off Zantax and put him on Prilosac, it's a different type of medicine for acid reflux..hopefully it does the trick because he is still uncomfortable when eating. His oxygen assistance is at 26-30, regular air is 21..so we're getting
close(er). He tried the bottle again today and did pretty good, they are not actually trying to feed him with it they just give him a little to get used to the taste and having something in his mouth. He also has to learn how to suck, swallow and breath all at once..this could take a bit of time. The rest of his feedings are still by tube which goes directly to his stomach.
He is now 4lbs 10.8oz!!!!!!!! Absolutely amazing!
