SCARY!

4/18 wt. 1644g, Every night Austin get weighed, it's not unusual for babies to lose weight and because he was only on fluids I wasn't surprised by his wt. loss.  Today was a big day for Austin! He started getting my breastmilk through a tube, he had a PICC line inserted, he started under lights to reduce his bilirubin, and was removed from CPAP to high flow NC. Today Austin scared all of us when he stopped breathing. Dad and g-ma Cindy were with Austin and they removed the clamp from his belly button, Austin was tired and gave everyone a scare. The nurses rushed to him and he is now fine but this all happened right before change of shift. When Chris came to tell me I was unable to go to my little boy, this was the LONGEST hour and a half of my life waiting to see Austin.

no more CPAP!

I DO NOT like this tube in my mouth!
