Seven weeks 3 days old

Evan is getting bigger so his feed was increased to 34 mL. He took down a full bottle at noon today. He and I are still learning what works best for us. I haven't quite figured out how I'm comfortable holding him. Even though I'm left handed, I still do a lot of things right handed. So far I seem to be more comfortable holding him with my left hand and bottling with my right. (Today at least!)

Happy Hump Day!!

Evan was started on pulmicort today. It is like an inhaler in that it will go through his nose cannula to try to help open up his lungs a little bit. I think I mentioned previously that his respiratory support seems stuck at 3 litres. The doctors are hoping this aerosol will help the lungs so they can wean.

Hm, shall I poop on my nurse now or later?

Evan's house location was changed today as one of his roommates has gone to the zoo. We have an awesome window location, but it is extremely drafty. I was really worried about Evan's temperature once he was moved out of his isolette and into an open crib. This new location is still in the same room. Hopefully it's a bit warmer. (I was really dreading pulling the "girls" out to breast feed in the old spot!! So the move is a little bit for me too!)
