Quick update

Little bear have been acting like a yo-yo the last couple of weeks but we are still trying to get his room ready. You never know when he will be send packing. Last Monday he started to require oxygen again. They think it is because he's mature red blood cell level is too low. They waited to give him transfusion because they wanted his body to produce the red blood cell. On Thursday he had a series of brady and had to be bag and in addition his stomach looks full again. His feed was stop and he was moved back to level III and given blood and anti-bacterias in case he's having NEC again. On Saturday they started his feed again because the blood culture and spinal fluid came back negative. He is still on oxygen when he move back to level II on Sunday. Wed. this week he was moved to Rockyview. Rockyview is closer to home and is also a level II nursery we are still adjusting to it. We have taking any pictures yet of him lately. We will remember to take the camera today and try to take couple of picture of him. He is still on oxygen and desaturates frequently. He's still being feed breast milk through a tube that goes from his nose to his stomach. They took out his picc line because it looked interstitial and because he's not yet on full feed, they are still supplementing it with TPN, protein and lipid via IV. They shaved a spot oh his head for that. He is not in a cot instead of isolette as he is heavy enough that they think he can maintain his own body temperature. He weighted in at 2010 gram last night however his lower limbs is very swollen so this weight might go down as the fluids are reabsorb and peed out. We hope soon we can have him home with us. He really needs to work on that breathing. Oh and he got couple of the routine 2 month shots yesterday. They usually give 3 different kind of shots for full term baby but because he's pre-term they are holding one for another week.

I gotta wash some dishes and head out to visit him. Will post more later if there is any changes
