Did someone turn the light back on?


Thursday, 3/4/14 07:30 pm

Carter has had a stable day.  He is still on CPAP and has only had a couple apnea episodes since yesterday.  He seems to really enjoy being on his belly.  His echocardiogram revealed that his PDA has almost closed.  Dr. Rawlings said that they will not treat it anymore unless it re-opens.  Carter had his brain ultrasound today however we have not received the results yet.  His bilirubin did go back up today to 6 however it is likely because he had a transfusion yesterday.  He had his feeds restarted today so they expect that as long as his belly kicks back in he will drop his bilirubin and get back out of the phototherapy.  Carter celebrated his 1 week birthday in 60% humidity in his palace fit for a king.

 Someone turned the lights back on so I'm going to just work on my tan since Daddy keeps taking so many pictures.
