Our Big Move to G


Jackson has had a really good day yesterday! The doctor weaned him down to High Flow 3, and he has stayed on room air almost the whole day! Ryan and I got there about 11:30 am and Ryan spent the first part of the morning holding him. :) After that we tried the non-nutritive sucking, but he was totally not in the mood for it (he wanted to sleep) so we stopped.
We spent the rest of the day just sitting with him. We left at 4:45 to go see The Sorcerer's Apprentice (good movie...you should check it out). While we were there a room opened up in G pod, so Jackson got moved! After the movie we went down to see him and check out his new room. (pictures to follow later). He had a good night, no episodes. Overall, there isn't much to report! (No news is good news).

Stats:
Weight: 3 pounds 15.6 ounces (the nurse said it's probably because they are using a different scale)
Respiratory: High Flow Nasal Cannula 3 liters. 21 percent oxygen (room air)
Feeds: Full feeds (10 cc an hour) continuous.

Goals:
1. Get settled into new room in G pod.
2. Wean down to 2 liters.
3. Have a successful non-nutritive session.
4. Keep on gaining weight!
