He's tough.

Early this morning our little man was de-sating quite a bit so he got an albuterol (inhaler) treatment because his lungs were tensing up. They had to go up on his oxygen from 38% to 44% which isn't bad, and she was going to start weaning him back down when his sat level was back up in the high 90s. Also, his sugar levels were a little high because they added more glucose and fats to his IV so that he might start growing for us, so they'll keep an eye on that. He's supposed to have another obstruction series done this morning so we should know a little more about what's up with his bowel. At this point they wont even consider the barium study because he's so small, so we're still playing wait and see. Other than that, all is well. We got to spend some time with him last night but Daddy still hasn't had a chance to hold him because we are having some nurse issues. I get the feeling we know more than them sometimes. We might not make it in today so hopefully tomorrow will be better. I'll be back on when we hear about the obstruction series.
