Since daddy is out of town, I got a chance to sleep in the NICU with Byton an it was pretty awesome. It was so nice to be able to wake up and have him just be a few feet away. He's been doing really well. They have started to transition him onto a new formula that's overall better for him. It's not as broken down as the Ellacare he's been getting, and it has more calcium. We gave him a bath this morning and weighed him- 8 lbs 2 oz! He was supposed to get the bronchoscopy today, but that's actually going to wait till tomorrow. Today he's getting an eye exam which is no fun either. There is a chance that, if during the bronchoscopy, they feel that steroids will not help or benefit his breathing, they might just give him the trach while they're in the OR. If this is the case, we hope everyone will understand if we don't want any visitors for a while. It's going to be quite an adjustment for all of us- and I'm already paranoid about germs as it is, if he has a hole in his throat, it's gonna be a whole other story. But for now things are good. Hopefully we'll have some answers tomorrow.
