Today was a little more difficult. They are thinking of putting Asher back into Level 3 to go on CPAP again for a little bit. When we arrived at the hospital today, they had changed his feeds to a continuous feed of 9 mL/hour to see if that helped with the apneas and bradys, since he has been them quite frequently. They were going to see how that went before transferring him. Then when we came back this evening, they had taken him off feeds altogether. Now we are waiting to see if the apneas and brady decrease or at least decrease in frequency and severity.
We are fine with whatever the doctors decide; the nurses keep reassuring us that the spells are so common in such young preemies. If he needs a little bit of help with the CPAP, then so be it. We are of course hoping that it doesn't come to that, but we want what is best for out little guy!
