Today little Jensen has had a good day. His mode of ventilation was changed and he handled it very well for most of the day. He's breathing a lot more on his own, and has been sleeping very well at the same time.
He's done three big proper breast milk baby poos today, which is a good sign his bowel is functioning well again. His milk has gone up to 5ml which he is enjoying, and sucking some milk from a cotton tip while he is being fed.
He managed two hours on his unfavoured left side before misbehaving for the nurses. Overall a good day of progress for the little man, and hopefully a few steps closer to being ready for CPAP.
Mummy and daddy have both had a little sleep in and are looking forward to a week of progress ahead..
How wonderful to see those beautiful eyes wide open. Geoff & I loved these pics Belinda. Thinking of you 3 every day. Loads of love xxxxx
