Mommy finally got
to hold her little dude! Jeff and I have been patiently waiting to hold Vann, and tonight they told me that I was going to be the first to hold him. They wanted me to hold him for at least
1 hour depending on how he handled it...let's just say he has never looked so comfortable in his life. I ended up holding him for 2.75 hours.
Yesterday, December 28, 2008, they attempted to take Vann off of the ventilator and give him a cpap (mask over his nose, allows him to breath on his own). He lasted the the entire day before they decided to put him back on the ventilator as he just wasn't strong enough yet!
He is really enjoying his feeds, so they have inc
reased them to every 3 hours and if he continues to do well, they will increase the amount to 3 ml. instead of 2 ml.
This morning, Jeff and I tagged teamed a diaper change, we are starting to get more comfortable and Jeff is GREAT and changing diapers!
All in all, our little guy is tough and appreciated all of the thoughts and prayers. They are working, so keep them coming.
