Stu and I were with Brandon tonight from 7:45-8:45. We arrived to find him back under the bilirubin light since his levels (jaundice) were a little elevated. We had a great visit with Brandon. He did not desat at all the whole time we were there even though we did his care. He was fed again when we were there. I held the top of the feeding tube while the milk went in. Not quite the same as giving a bottle but it is a start. Brandon had his eyes open a lot when we were there. We were SO happy to see them. We have the same nurse as last night but she was a little better tonight so I left feeling better than I did last night.
I drove today for the first time since May 18th. It was so nice to be able to drive. I drove myself to the hospital this afternoon when I went to visit Brandon.
My name is Karen and I have been married to my husband Stu for a little over 9 years. I was pregnant with twins and lost our baby girl at 20 1/2 weeks after I had premature rupture of membranes. I stayed pregnant with the other baby and our first child, Brandon Tyler, was born on July 5, 2008 at 26 weeks and 1 day. Our second child, Wesley Matthew, was born full term on June 29, 2011. This blog is documenting our children.
