Micaiah NICU Day 9 (11.30)

Weight: 6 lbs 3 oz

Breathing: This morning they tried to take him off the oxygen. He last about an hour before they put him back. At the end of the day, he was on 75cc. This is just like a tiny puff of air. I joked with the respiratory therapist that we should just turn it off & leave his cannula in to trick him. They're going to continue weaning him by 25cc to get him down to nothing.
His nurse said she thought they'd watch him a couple days after he is off all oxygen.

Feedings: He took all of his feeds well today. He nursed twice & did great the last time. He choked once when he took a bottle, but he was eating way too fast.

Wesley stayed home working with his dad & keeping Hannah Kate today. She took an hour to go to sleep at nap time. He had to spank her four times for getting up. Tonight I asked if she had a good nap & she said "lay down! Spankin'" ---At least she knows why she got a spanking!
She is ready to stay home & she's sick. We are afraid she has bronchitis. :(
