Day 25 - 2

Quick update because I must get some sleep.

Nicholas could not tolerate the formula again. He was throwing it all up. So this morning they decided to try giving him breast milk. Full fat breast milk. Then we had to wait and see if his output increased or turned more milky. I'm not really sure where we stand. The output may have increased slightly or stayed about the same, and I can't tell if it's more milky or not. So they are just going to keep him on the breast milk overnight and see how the output is by morning. They will take a chest x-ray in the morning and see if any fluid is building up.

They had to take his left chest tube out today because the stitch was pulled out and it was not in there right anymore. I have a hunch how that happened (nurse), but won't get into that right now. So if he does have any fluid on the left side from the breast milk they will have to put a new tube back in.

  1. Here's hoping the improvement continues. I hope he can keep on the breastmilk! {{HUG}}
