A hard day....
John was transfered to the open crib at midnight. He was able to maintain a decent temperature most of the day (97.2 - 98.3).
He also had his first eye exam today. It was to rule out any possible vision problems due to the premature birth. Everything looked normal. This, of course, is not a guarantee that John will not inherit Mommy or Daddy's myopia as he ages.
He gained a little weight up to 2166g (4 lbs 12 oz). Ideally he would be going up 1-2 oz every day. So his food intake was increased to 50cc. His morning nipple feeding was not too successful. However, he ate 30cc from the bottle during the 6 pm feeding!
Unfortunately, he continues to have multiple bad drops in heart rate and O2 levels probably caused by reflux. He had to be stimulated multiple times today. It's never a good feeling to see your child turn blue.
Please continue to keep him in your prayers.
P.S. Pictures are coming... as soon as we find the USB cord.
