APRIL 6TH & APRIL 7TH

Ryan's weight on April 7th was 2 lbs. 10 oz., so he continues to grow!

On Monday, Joey got to give Ryan his bath and change his diaper! He's getting more comfortable with it. It's just a little hard because you have to give the bath and change him while he's in the incubator and hooked up to so many things, but we're both getting better.

On Tuesday, Lisa got to hold Ryan with skin-to-skin contact for over an hour. He did very well and Lisa enjoyed holding him so close. She'll continue to do this every other day until he can tolerate it every day. He also had a visit from his Mimi, Patricia Landry and Joey.

Ryan is not having as many difficult breathing episodes per day. Yeah! They have increased his caffeine and it seems to be helping.

His tests on Monday were good. They are watching one concerning his bones. They will follow up with another test and can give him calcium if needed.

Thank you all for following Ryan's progress! Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.

Have a great day. Lisa, Joey and Alec
