I just called for an update:
He is 2082 grams today! About 4 pounds 9 1/2 oz!
They are trying to see if he can get by on a lower flow of oxygen. He had been on 4 liters, was down to 2 liters today, and they will try 1 1/2 liters next if his blood gas is still okay, which they are checking at 1pm.
His isolette is down to 28 degrees in preparation for popping the top off of it again and seeing if he can regulate his own body temp.
His fast breathing has not improved yet.
Joy
