After quite a few days, Jay got to hold Landon again tonight. It wasn’t that I have been hogging Landon’s attention (tough i’d love to) but that we wanted to make sure Jay’s sniffles were allergy related and not cold symptoms. Landon enjoyed dad’s hairy chest and me even be competing by trying to grow more hair himself (mostly on his head). The good news from today is that they turned down the pressure on his CPAP. If he does well, he is on his way to losing the nose gear (this may take awhile, but since he hates it, the sooner the better). The great news is that he is maintaining his feeds well including the calorie supplements they are giving him. As the calories are increased, he will gain more and more weight! The best news, though, is that he seems to enjoy Kangaroo holding so much that the nurse has asked us to come in twice a day to hold him. We are so proud of our little guy and it feels so great to hold him.
On another note, Landon had his one week follow up brain scan for which we will get the results tomorrow. We are guessing things will look good, but as always we are keeping our fingers crossed.
Until tomorrow,
Sarah
