Ryan has had a very uneventful day/night (we LOVE reports that start this way). He is still requiring a slight amount of extra oxygen when he is turned or worked with for extended periods of time but this is normal for little ones his size. Even though his oxygen may have to be increased slightly he is still on very low vent and oxygen settings.
His tummy is still working on becoming less distended. They haven’t restarted his feeds yet. The nurse did say today that since he isn’t critical that the doctor wrote for a chromosomal analysis. They do not see any reason that would lead them to believe that he has a chromosome anomaly but it is standard practice on all babies that were growth restricted to check. We still have to clarify with the doctor but I believe that it should tell us if I passed my factor five affected chromosome to him also.
I was able to catch his little left eye open on camera!! It is hard to see but he was still slightly sedated and he had his little eye open as far as he could get it when he heard me start talking to him! I Love how he interacts with us more and more every day!
Dean and I are sitting here watching the opening game of the NFL tonight. It is a repeat of last season’s super bowl. I remember sitting out at mom and dad’s house watching this game. Green Bay is one of Dean’s favorite teams. It was one of the first times since we had lost Jackson that we as a family had a nice relaxing night. We could just imagine Jackson up in heaven giggling, with a little cheese wedge hat, and asking God to help daddy’s team win! We had such a fun night that night!
