Day 88 - Sleeping During the Day 💤🌞, Awake at Night 👀🌜

Sunday, March 28, 2021

Jimmy likes the night shift. 😴 He sleeps during the day, and is awake at night. ⏰ The only change for today is that James' feeds increased to 54 mls.

Dad was able to get some work done while Mom held for 2½ hours. Dad also read him some new Dr. Seuss. 📖 James is so appreciative of all of his books that he has received! 😘 Thank you to the Busillo's, the Biggs', the Vincent's, fellow Capricorn 🐐 Mags, and "Aunt" Brittany. 📚

Blood gas this morning was 67.2 🩸, which has gone up a little bit. Blood gases are currently every 48 hours. His FiO2 has been ranging between about 43 and 50. 🫁

The milk room is still trying to figure out the best process for "making the milk" (which is added fortifier to the breast milk). They were originally doing this internally in the milk room, then they had the nurses doing it in the individual rooms, then moved this process back to the milk room to avoid the chance of infection.🍼 Unfortunately, they didn't do the math correctly and some of the milk expired while they were trying to figure out the most efficient process. We can't imagine how that must feel to a mom who is an undersupplier. Luckily this Mom has an oversupply. 

P.S. You can email James your love and support as often as you’d like. Mom and Dad read these email to James as they come in. We all love them! JamesWestonAbramowitz@gmail.com
