So peaceful!
Kale has been on a roll lately! He has been doing well on his vapotherm, and is still on 2 lpm. His blood gases have been pretty consistent and maybe in the next few days they will move him down to 1 lpm!
He has been doing great with his feeds as well, still at 40 mls and he is definitely gaining weight along with that. He is up to 4 lbs. 14 oz! He's going to hit the 5 lb. mark soon!!! Hard to believe how far he's come....we're so thankful!
He has been doing pretty good with nuzzling too, hopefully in the next few days we'll get the go ahead to start nursing.
Some other exciting news today - Derc changed his first poopy diaper all on his own, start to finish!!! I didn't believe him, so had to have Jodi confirm, and she said he did great!
We're off to watch my brother-in-law Justin race tomorrow, we're excited!
Have a great weekend, and as always, thanks for checking in on our little man, he's truckin' along!
Kale - Grandma Rainbow and Aunt Sarah are coming to visit you tomorrow - so rest up tonight so you have lots of energy for us!
ReplyDeleteDerc - I am SO PROUD of you for changing your first poopy diaper. You've made great strides - Congratulations!!!!!
Love the pictures. Can't believe he is almost 5 pounds!
Love
Grandma Rainbow
Can't believe how big and healthy he is looking! I look forward to these updates everyday. Just wanted to let you know that little Kale is the last thing I pray about every night before I go to bed! Glad to see so many great updates!!
