After an early visit on 9/14

Sonnet got to have kangaroo time with Jack today, pictures will be posted shortly. He did very well, although a leak in his ventilator line led to quite a few false alarms going off on his monitor. He did well with the blood transfusion, and has been upped on his feeds yet again. He has gone up from 9ccs to 12ccs. Yay for Jack!

They did an x-ray on his chest, apparently there's a lot of fluid in there, which is bad. However, they gave him some medicine (didn't write down which this was, will try and get it next visit), and he's sounding a lot better to the respiratory therapist. We're anticipating that he'll need more treatment for this, but at least they're doing something to help it. And, as with all the things Jack has been encountering, this seems to be another one of those standard preemie things. We finally got the results of his head sonogram, and they came back perfectly normal. Yay!
