Noah's digestion has been tolerating things so well that they have decided to increase his feedings from every 4 hours to every 3 hours. He still gets the same amount of milk, but an extra feeding a day. We think we can see his little tummy and hands filling out as he gains a little more weight. He is now back up to birth weight at 1 pound 13 ounces.
Since being on the new biPAP machine, Noah is working a bit harder to breathe. Because of this, his supplemental oxygen levels have had to be turned up a bit. He is still breathing on his own, though!
We did not get to do Kangaroo care this evening because his oxygen levels were low and his care times have been rearranged due to his new feedings. We hope to be able to pick back up tomorrow.
