Logan got his second try on the SiPAP today. He was scheduled to be extubated yesterday, but he had an eye test that was pretty traumatic for him so they decided to wait again. So far, he is doing well off the vent. We try not to get our hopes up too high, but it is encouraging and we hang onto every good day we get. We really hope that we have seen the last of the ventilator. He is also off his IV fluids and is getting all of his nutrition from his feeds - 8.5 mL every 2 hours. Mom's milk is fortified and also has potassium and sodium added to it. His incubator area in the nursery looks so different without all the equipment around it. We like it! Now it just needs to stay that way... We also got the results back from the labs they drew looking for infection, and there is not one right now. They thought he might have had an infection because his white blood cells were up. But so far, so good on the front.
Our major concern right now is keeping Logan on the SiPAP and off the vent. Your prayers are, as always, very much appreciated.
Much love,
Meghann, Lance and Logan
