So far Cael's having a great day. We were hoping that he would be able to go off of the CPAP today, but that's not the case. He was however moved to high flow! Basically a step away from the CPAP towards breathing on his own. So it's definitely a step in the right direction. He's just not ready to breathe on his own yet.
We got to breastfeed for the first time today! It was more of a meet and greet than anything, but we'll take it. Cael did great. We'll take another go at it at 3.
Praying tomorrow he's breathing on his own so we can really start to concentrate on breastfeeding - because once we get both of those done - we get to start talking about going home.
Also, no sign of the heart murmur today and his bilirubin number is lower. Still under the lights for a bit, but doing great.
Thanks for all of the thoughts and prayers. Love to all~
