His first poopie!

December 18th
First thing, Jonathan has his and our favorite nurse today, her name is Kim she is great. She handles Jonathan excellent and he LOVES her, sometimes he misses her so much(even though she was just in there 15 mins ago) that he will start squirming so that his monitor will start ringing and as soon as Kim comes in the room and he hears her voice he stops and goes back to sleep, its pretty comicable. I finally talked to someone in charge and Kim will now be Jonathans primary morning nurse when shes there!!!
Lots of changes today, they lowered Jonathans vent setting to 28 breathes per min., hes doing good with that. They increased his feedings to 1cc every 2 hours!! So we know his digestive system is working, thank you Lord. He had his first poop it was quite funny it seemed like from 8am till about 3pm he kept sticking his butt in the air and making scringing faces as in maybe he was trying, the nurse said ya thats possible so at 4pm I changed his diaper and sure enough there was the worlds smallest poop, the down side is that his first couple poopies are sticky so some was sticking to him and the nurse wiped it off but it was really on his bum, long story short he did not appreciate his butt being touched and he held his breathe and turned blue, gave me a heart attack I was so scared! After about what seemed like forever he got his breath back. Ok so from now on he gets some vaseline on his bum so it doesnt stick because nobody wants to see him, especially mommy turn blue! I also got to cradle hold him that was the most wonderful feeling that I can't even explain it. We looked into each others eyes it was the first time I seen him that close while holding him I cryed and he just stared, he is so beautiful. I could only hold him for 1/2 hour beacause he doesn't know how to maintain his body temp., however when we put him back in his isollette he was still very warm so next time I can probably hold him for about 45 mins. So today was a great day beside the turning blue!
