No more CPAP!!....again!

When we came in to see Collin today we were shocked to find that he didn't have the CPAP anymore! Now he has the nasal canula again which is much more comfortable for him. He's so happy, he can move his head around freely and he doesn't have that big thing on his face. We're excited because it's much easier to move him around and hold him. The nurses told us that we can freely take him out of his isolet (bed) by ourselves now. We just finished changing an astounding poop (with a smell that can't even be described) so he's digesting well.....definitely no problems there! He's up to 29 ml of milk every 3 hours, and he's up to 3 pounds 5.6 ounces! Collin is doing so well so far, we're both very proud of our little monkeyman!

  1. This is great news! I am so happy for you guys to be able to interact with him even more, but even more happy for Collin. He must feel so much better being able to move and stretch and especially not to have his little nose squished!
