Almost 4 weeks old (32 weeks gestation)

Tonight's Weight: 2lbs 13oz

Austin has reached the goal I had set to make it to for delivery, but he has been here almost 4 weeks now.

He is still doing really good. Today his feedings were increased to 22 mL and he is still digesting everything he is given. We hope in the next few days or so he is doing well enough that the PICC line can be removed.

On the respiratory front, he is doing great! He is still on SiPAP, but from the picture below he should be close to coming off of it. (The prongs from his mask are on his eyebrows.) He is having a blood gas done tomorrow morning and hopefully they will switch him over to CPAP.


That's all the news for today!
