Jonathans PDA closed a little but it is still open. The doctors talked to us about surgery to clamp the valve shut. This surgery will take place on Tuesday morning however the doctors want to do another ultrasound on monday to see if it happens to close on its own.
Jonathans settings on his ventilator are really good his breathes per min. have gone done from 56 to 52 this is good sign not only is it showing that the valve is smaller but it also shows that he is trying to breathe on his own which means hes trying to get off the ventilator (we have a long way till then but at least hes already trying) his carbon dioxide was 50 which is good. His nurses say hes doing very well, thats what mommy likes to hear!! I held jonathan for about an hour and a half he tolerated that well, but of course he would he knows how much mommy loves him!!!!
We really need this PDA to close or be smaller so we can start breast milk, we need to put meat on these bones:)
