We had a bit of a scare over the weekend when we were told that Kian might have meningitis again. (He didn't really have it last time, most likely). The number of white blood cells in his cerebrospinal fluid went way up. They put him back on antibiotics and told us we may have to go back to Primary's. So they did all sorts of tests, and 2 days later, the number went way down. They did a CT scan of his brain to see if there were any small pockets of infection by his reservoir, and they didn't see anything. So they stopped his antibiotics, and called him infection free. All of your prayers are paying off!
Kian is growing fast. He is getting close to 5 lbs and is 17 3/4 inches long. We are working on breastfeeding and he is getting better at that. They put him back on caffeine again to help him breathe more constantly (he would take big breaks from breathing) and that seems to be helping. All in all, things are going pretty well.
