YEAH 4 pounds already!!!!
Hi everyone! Ayden is up to 1824 grams (4.02 pounds)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂 So today has been another good day. I went for a visit this afternoon to Hamilton to see Ayden. When I got there the nurse had Ayden’s hat off to give his head a rest from the pads and pressure that the CPAP holders give him. The CPAP was still on (as Ayden still needs this), but it was nice to see him without his little hat on! I spoke with one of the doctors today and he asked if we had been given the results of the last head ultrasound and I told him no. He said that the little water spaces that we had to drain with the spinal tap are actually getting SMALLER!!!! HORRAY..this is awesome news. He also said that he thinks we have averted any operations to put a...
Eye Spy
We thought you’d all like to know that Ayden’s eye tests came back with no signs of eye disease and growth and development is progressing normally. I know I know – Kind of an important fact to forget to write… but better late than never! cheers
Most Amazing Visit Yet!
So last night Lindsay and I headed up to Mac to see Ayden… we knew that every other day was bath day… and so we thought since we haven’t seen bath time we’d head up and see what this is all about. The drive up was okay.. the weather was fine initially… We got there around, 7:30ish and totally didn’t take into consideration that the hospital does their change over between 7 and 7:30 so the nurses were all in little meetings. We headed in right away to Ayden’s bedside. I always get excited every time I go in. There he was sleeping on his tummy. He was swinging while we were there and a nurse that would watch the incubators while the other nurses caught up came over and made some tweaks and he was fine. The night nurse...

Sunday Jan 4th
Well we didn’t make it in to see Ayden today. There was a weather warning for some freezing rain and we felt that it was safer to stay in then try to brave the weather. But funny thing that weather man…he was wrong. There was a bit of rain today, but it was not a freezing rain as they predicted…sigh… Anyways, we called as we normally do for an update. Ayden is doing well. He has gained some more weight and is up to 1674 grams (3.6 pounds). The nurse said some of that might be a bit of water weight as he is a little bloated, but even so he is growing and growing. His oxygen is anywhere between room air 21% oxygen to 26% depending on how he is lying and if his tummy is full or not. He is still doing well with his milk at 20 mils every two...
