[trumpetbum]

Sounds like he's doing great

 

[scicraft]

Congrats on your little fighter! I'm happy to hear that you are both doing well.

 

[Agiboma]

So today he was placed on vent because he has times where he forgets to breath but overall he is still doing great

 

[Tulip]

What a brave boy - come on michael darling xx

 

[Agiboma]

He may Be on the vent for a few weeks but after speaking with the respiratory therapist he said the vent settings are medium and he goes breath over the vent and only when he forget yo breath the vent assist him I am so proud to be his mommy

 

[25weeker]

Congratulations on the birth of your baby boy. Your lo is doing really well to be off the vent so soon. It is common for them to go back on the vent as they are tired. He will probably have a few more transfusions as well as it takes a while for their bone marrow to kick in. My lo got her last transfusion at 33 weeks gestation.

Any questions ask away as there is plenty people on here than can help.

Don't forget to look after yourself as well because you have many weeks ahead of you in the rollercoaster ride of Nicu.

Take care

Hey hun. Believe it or not but I was thinking of PMing you to ask how the stitch was holding up when I stumble on this thread by chance. Congrats on you little boy. There is no doubt he is a fighter. Did you get steroid shots before you went into labour?

Thinking of you and can't wait to see piccies of baby Michael.

 

[Foogirl]

Congratulations! He sounds like he is doing quite well.

Looking forward to the piccies! There is a sticky thread where you can introduce him if you like.

Take good care of you - this is a trying time and you need strength to get through it. Plenty rest and recuperation!
