Well, Christian needed to go back on CPAP. He was trying to hard to breath on the cannula today so Dr. Green put him back on the CPAP mask. They also gave him the diuretic and will also give him the blood transfusion. He is doing just fine on the CPAP and it could just mean we took him off it to soon and he has been really trying hard to breath the last few days. Time will tell on this little guy. It could also mean the beginning of an infection... we hope not. They will X Ray his chest tomorrow and look for "wet looking" lungs and we will see where we are at.
On a positive note, the boys feedings have been doing good and Christian is up to 30 cc's and Brock 34 cc's. Brock had a gain and now weights 3 pounds and 8 oz. and Christian had a small loss and is at 3 pounds 1 oz. Again, since he is working so hard to breath, it is a big calorie burner and that could be why is is having a hard time keeping weight on as well.
They both looked super cute today in the NICU and Brandon and I held them after work.
