I'm still sick and worse today. I spent the day and evening with Zachary yesterday. He nursed fairly well not having nursed for 2.5 days. He's up to 5 lbs 12 ounces now. The doctor came in and said she can't barely hear the PDA anymore so they're pretty sure it's closed or nearly closed. They've now upped his fluid intake to normal levels for his size so he's up to 54 cc/ml per feed 8 x a day.
He's still pretty stuffy never really cleared up from the cold we all had a few weeks back. Some of that could be the cannula and feeding tube in his nose too. I won't make it up there today I'm still too sick and shouldn't push it.
So good news overall and hopefully he'll be able to take the new feed amounts without problem since that is so much greater than what he's used to.
