I was finally able to see Grayson about 11am on his first full day of life. He was still on the vent, but required very little oxygen. His vitals were stable and the plan of the day was to get him off of the vent. His nurse was named Rhonda and she was amazing. A true go-getter and advocate for the babies that she cares for. She was instrumental in getting Grayson off of the vent. Around 9pm, they finally extubated him to a nasal CPAP and he did excellent. He tolerated the nasal CPAP through the night, with a new goal to get rid of CPAP the very next day.
Grayson also began eating on this day too! He has an OG tube and gets his food every 3 hours. He was also able to take breastmilk, which I was very happy about. He started out at 2mL per feeding...not much at all but it is a start.
Our visitors today were Aunt Gigi, Mom, baby Jones, and Bob Christenbury.
