APRIL 18TH

Ryan's weight last night was 3 lbs. 4 oz!!!

Lisa got to do Kangaroo Care (skin-to-skin) with him Friday and Saturday and he did well for both sessions.

The doctor is going to reduce the Vapotherm pressure from 2.0 to 1.0 tomorrow and see how Ryan does with it. The last 2 days he has been breathing at around 24 - 28% oxygen, so he is improving.

The next step is to wean him off the Vapotherm and get him started on bottle feeding (with breast milk) and then on to breast feeding.

We are so pleased that Ryan is making progress and are so blessed he is in our lives. Please continue to pray for him.

Lisa, Joey and Alec
