March 18th
Well there's a lot that has happened sorry it's been awhile but things are moving in the right direction!!!
Jonathan has had a thyroid test and it came back great. He has had high blood pressures for about a month so the doctors wanted to check his kidneys and heart both are great praise GOD! So the doctors will start him on diuretics(sp?) and he has been on those for about a week! His bp has been very good since starting his meds. Other good news Kim is back as of the 10th (she was gone for a month) we couldn't be happier! Thank you for all your prayers for her! Jonathan had his first bath he was a bit shocked but seemed to like it! And the biggest news Jonathan is OFF CPAP and on nasal cannula full time he is doing great he has had it off for 4 days! He is on 21% oxygen which is room air so it looks like he may be coming home with no oxygen but we will have to wait and see! Tomorrow I get to try breastfeeding again and if all goes good he should be coming home the first week in April! I can't believe it it has been a journey but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! GOD has really watched over our baby because we just keep seeing babies that are having 3 to 5 surgeries and all thou we have had one we just praise god that that is all he has needed! Some of the nurses are just amazed that he has needed no eye surgeries babies born at 25 week gestation almost always need some kind of surgery but as of last Tuesday his eyes are great! So again thank you to all that have kept Jonathan in your prayers because I know if it weren't for them we would not be able to say how great he is doing! I love you all and can't wait to show him off!!
Jonathan is now 7lbs 15oz's remember when he was born he was 1lb 12oz's he is a big boy!!
