NICU day 13

Will had another good night. Thank you Lord! He is being rotated from his belly to his back to help relieve some of the apnea spells and the doctors say it is working very well. He is really enjoying being on his belly. His weight is back up to 540 grams or 1lb 3oz. His feedings have been increased again to 10ml every 3 hours. Yeah for that! He is getting his pic line out today which is great because they normally keep it in for 30 days and Will has had his in for 13 days and the doctors believe it is not necessary for him to have it in anymore. He is getting a few blood tests done tomorrow to check all his levels and another head ultrasound as well. So all is well in the life of Will in the NICU.

Thank you all for your prayers! We are feeling them everyday and are still being strong for Will. God is amazing and we are beginning to see his amazing power and prescense over our little Will each and every day. The doctors have warned us there will be ups and downs so we are trying not to be too overly excited over his daily improvements but are rejoicing and praising God for those days that we get good news. Continue to lift him up daily in your prayers as well as the amazing staff, doctors, and nurses at the NICU.
