Day 72

Yesterday Chase did well off of oxygen all together! He still gulps the bottle when he's hungry and gasps to catch his breath, but this would happen to anyone eating fast:) He only gained a few grams which was good, because the two prior days he gained a little too much. As you may remember this issue is of concern because of fluid retention. After discussion during rounds the docs also decreased his calorie supplement back down to 24. We were also told to bring his car seat in by mid week!!

I wish someone besides the nurse could have seen Chase while I gave him his bath yesterday. He was hilarious. When she put him on his belly under the warmer he was squirming around like a frog. He kept kicking his legs around on the pad, rearing up his butt and lifting his head. Unfortunately I had my hands full with him, so I couldn't take any video!

Today is my baby shower at Clementine so we have lots of company visiting from out of town!
