Movin on Up...


He's moved from the ventilator to the CPAP, and now off the CPAP to the nasal cannula!!!(that's the small straw that sits in the tip of your nose providing a burst of oxygen)

This is a huge step for Max and we couldn't be happier. It makes it easier for him to move around, turn his head, and much easier for us to hold and comfort him. It's just generally more comfortable, and it means he'll soon be sitting in the arms of his big sister!

As with any other step forward in the NICU, we know that this can change at any time. But so far, he seems to be very happy with the change. He'll have a blood gas in Tuesday morning.
