Today is the day that most babies born with spina bifida are able to turn onto their back. That would mean that within a few days we would be able to go home. However, Ezra is a long way from that. The doctors have not even begun to speculate when that will be. We can only go by the original time line of 6-8 weeks. At least by time we get to go home we wont have to do any snow blowing. How’s that for glass half full?
The neonatologist said that he is doing alright without the catheter, which is definitely good news. That is one of the life long issues that he might be facing, so the fact that he is doing good now is encouraging. We’re still working on the feeding. It seems that when he is awake he does the best. He just isn’t awake that much or for that long.
We are looking forward to the weekend, even though all the days are kind of the same around here.
