24 hrs. on the CPAP

At 4:30pm today Chase made it to a full day off the respirator. He had a few drops in his rates while we were just up there but he didn't need stimulation, and his numbers still look good. They started him this afternoon on what equates to a mega dosage of caffeine to see if that would help and not have him work so hard. They also started him on a little milk to hopefully help bring up his weight! We met with the Neonatologist for awhile and she reviewed everything they covered during rounds. They hold rounds every morning and encourage the parents to be available to get all of the updates. Just before we left to give him some time to rest he opened his eyes for a while. I didn't have the camera, so here's an iPhone pic. We have his Little Flyers Fan bib hanging up there-GO FLYERS!!
