A Little Update

Here's a little update... Braxton is still doing really well. In the past week they have put him back on the phototherapy just to take him off again a couple days later. His breathing had improved so they tried taking him off the CPAP but yesterday they decided to put him back on it since he was using so much energy to breathe. Hopefully he wont have to be on it much longer. I love being able to see his little face. I just stare at him trying to figure out who he looks like more. I still cant figure it out!!! His feedings are now 13 mL every 3 hours and he now weighs 3lbs. 10oz. I have gotten to hold him almost every day this past week. I love being able to spend time with him. I cant wait to take him and be with him 24/7. We have a meeting this week with his team of drs, nurses, aids,social workers etc... EVERYONE. We will go over what has happened, what will happen, goals for him etc. It will be nice to go over all of this with everyone there at the same time. Maybe then we will have a better idea of long it will be until he comes home.

On a side note, we registered last weekend for my baby shower. We had to move up the date since our little guy decided to come early. We have already gotten our baby monitor, car seat and stroller. I love my carseat/stroller. I cant wait for my carseat cover to get here (if it ever comes... thats a whole other story. Im so annoyed!!!) . Its freakin so cute!!! Now this week we get to stress about getting ready for the shower... I hope it will all come together by next weekend! We'll see! We will post more after we have the meeting with his team later on this week! Thanks again to everyone for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers!
