One week old!!!

Noah is one week old today!!! yay!!!  He is up to 600 grams (520g at birth).  Still breathing on his own, although they have raised the amount of air the CPAP machine is blowing to help keep his airway open.  He is still having apnea episodes, but they are not as dramatic and he recovers well from them.  Also, they reintroduced feedings today, his stomach was not handling it well before.  He still gets all the nurtrition he needs through IV.  Hopefully his tummy is better able to handle it this time. Oh....big news...he pooped! haha. This is a good sign because it means things in his stomach are moving.  In preemies this early, the stomach is one of the biggest issues, so right now thats his biggest hurdle.  He seemed in high spirits today after his blood transfusion.  His wall is starting to look pretty, Aunt Kimmy dropped of a sign she made for him today.  While Wyatt went to the Railroad Park today with Grandpa, Mommy got to hold Noah for the second time....tomorrow is Daddy's turn!

That's all for now...well update again soon!
