Tuesday is always weight and measurment day.\u00a0 So we had to see just how big his little head is now, how long he is, and how much he weighs.\u00a0 Man is his head getting big!\u00a0 We are not entirely certain if it is just baby growth, or if it is because he knows he can make us jump by holding his breath until the alarms go off.\u00a0 Either way he does hold his breath quite a bit.\u00a0 It gets frustrating as you look at him turn beat red and then you hear the alarm on the ventilator and you wait……..and tonight we waited………….and waited………….and start saying “Breath Greyson”………and we wait………and we say “stop holding your breath buddy”………and we wait………….and he breaths.\u00a0 Well when he holds his breath to much (like just described) then he sets of the saturation alarm because of course he’s not oxygenating his blood when he’s holding his breath for so long.\u00a0 He will probably have to be grounded for this when he is a teenager.<\/font><\/p>\n

His weight continues to go up to fast.\u00a0 He gained 100 grams from yesterday.\u00a0 This is way to much.\u00a0 He still looks quite puffy.\u00a0 The nutritionist yesterday told Stacy she thought they were giving him to much food (something we have talked to the Dr. about already) and made the recomendation that they maintain his feeds where they are for a few days to see if it helps the puffyness and his CO2 levels.\u00a0 Well they stayed the same for a day and then tonight they upped the feeds again.\u00a0 We are questioning this but don’t know what will become of it.\u00a0 Obviously the Dr’s have their reasons, but we don’t like seeing him so puffy or gaining weight more than he should (which coincidentially makes him puffy!).\u00a0 <\/font><\/p>\n

So yesterday I changed his diaper and he hadn’t pooped.\u00a0 Then we were weighing him and he was a bit fussy before finally throwing his arms up over his head like “l did it!”.\u00a0 Well I went to adjust his diaper because I thought I had gotten some wires caught in the diaper and I realized he had made a major poop.\u00a0 I celebrated, changed his diaper again and weighed him one more time hoping he was less after expelling some of the poo, but nope, still weighed a lot.\u00a0 They are sedating him a little bit more in an attempt to ensure he doesn’t extibate himself again so he was not very active tonight.\u00a0 I guess that’s about it for tonight.\u00a0 <\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
