Friday (January 20)

No news is good news, right?  Right!!  Silas is doing good.  There is really nothing to write about.  He is breathing great.  He is on the nasal cannula for four hour blocks, then the cpap for four hours, then back to the cannula, and so on.  He is digesting his food well.  Everything is fine.  They went up on his feeds today (from 7 1/2 ml to 8 ml every hour).  They want him to start growing more but he is sort of stuck right around 2 pounds 8 ounces and 2 pounds, 9 ounces.  He goes back and forth.  Remember that I said that he weighed 2 pounds, 11 ounces?  Well, he didn't.  Not really.  They determined that they had an error on his weight that day because the next day he was back to 2 pounds 8 ounces.  Boo.  Grow Silas Grow!!!
