Today when I got to the hospital Chase was off CPAP! His nose had been getting irritated by the prongs, and since he was on room air most of the time they figured they would try him on nasal cannula instead. One of the neonatologists is not a fan of the cannula, even though the respiratory therapist is the one who recommended it. The doc said if he required more than 30% O2 he wanted him put back on CPAP, not sure what his issue is, but I think its just that some babies don't do well with the change. He had been off for over two hours when I got there and he had not had any bradys. He also looks very happy!
Chase looks like an old man in lots of of pics because even with the flash off a light comes on to illuminate what you are taking a picture of. We haven't been able to get a good shot of him with his eyes open because he always scrunches his eyes as soon as the light comes on. If anyone knows how to turn this feature off on the Nikon SLR, let us know.
Hey Jason and Katie, We are so glad he is doing so well. He looks so adorable in his new little outfits. Thanks for all the updates we look forward to them.
