Asher was moved to the Level 2 Nursery today! Wow, our little boy is doing so well!
He is still having apneas and bradys, but it is just because his body is immature. He will outgrow the spells as he gets stronger. Along with his move to Level 2, the doctors decided to decrease his feeds from every 3 hours to every 2 hours (in smaller portions, of course. He is now fed 18 mLs every 2 hours, instead of 27 mLs every 3). They are hoping that this change will decrease his spells of apnea and bradycardia. He was also spitting up a fair bit today, so 27 mLs may have been a bit much for his little tummy.
weigh-in: 1360 grams (up 14). that's 3 lbs!
