Today Landon gained another 50 grams, bringing his total to 850. In no time he will reach the two pound mark (about 907 grams). Last night was more eventful as he had bumps in his intestines (they can see this through his thin skin). The doctors did a quick chest and abdominal x ray and determined that our poor boy has gas; yup, as you all are thinking, just like his daddy (or was it the beans I ate a few days ago?). This morning his intestines looked better, but just to be sure all is well, they will keep an eye on it for the next few days. As long as he keeps pooping like a big boy, all will be well. The x ray also determined that his lungs were partially deflated (basically this means over-worked). We have had a suspicion of this because of the decreased air flows the last few days and his increased apnea spells. So, they raised his oxygen for awhile and raised his air flow back as well. He is currently back on 21% oxygen (room air) and back to an air flow of 4. So far, this seems to be helping a lot. When I was visiting this morning, he had just one minor apnea spell which he corrected himself. After a few days of rest they may lower the flow back down. The doctor assured us this is all completely normal and that they are just playing with the numbers to see where he is most comfortable. As Landon grows, his chest wall and muscles will expand so that he eventually will no longer need breathing support. This can happen as soon as 32 weeks (gestation) or anywhere thereafter. Landon still has 2.5 weeks before even hitting 32 weeks…so he seems to still be ahead of the game.
