So this was Kian's CPAP delivery method. I guess he just wanted to try out all the different styles of O2. I held him yesterday while he was sporting this look, and it was awkward. Plus he didn't breathe much while I was holding him, so our time together didn't last long.
Now he's on a nasal canula, and we can see more of his face. He is becoming more alert and opening his eyes a lot more. He's gaining weight, too. He's up to 2 lbs 12 oz.
So cute! He's getting all of his feeds through the OG tube in his mouth. No nutrition in the IV. Yea! And he has to wear big preemie diapers because he was soaking through the other ones. These diapers are huge on him.

I am so glad that you were able to hold him again! Now he just needs to breathe!
Yay! Soaking through diapers is good... it means his body knows what to do with the food!
It was so good to see your family at the funeral, you are such a trooper! Have they said anything else about the meningitis? Is the antibiotic working?
I'm so glad your little guy seems to be progressing...of course I don't know much about medical stuff but what you say sounds positive to me. What a strong momma you are to have to see your little baby with all that stuff all over him. I honestly don't know how I would take it.
I am so glad that you are able to hold him! He seems to look big, when he is actually small. Well hope he can do better!
Love,
Mikayla
