Day 110


Parker had a night of fighting his feeds and another day of fighting too. His reflux was so bad today that at one point that his heart rate and o2 sats dropped pretty low. So after much discussion John and I have decided to do surgery. They will do a fundo which will help his reflux and a G tube so that we can feed him when he doesn't drink all that he's supposed to. And the G tube will be a temporary thing. Once he is stable after surgery we can take him home and continue to work with him on his feeding skills. We feel this is the best move for Parker. We know he'll do so much better at home.

Parker had a pretty good day otherwise. we gave him some breaks from feeding and gavaged it. He was really happy this afternoon. He was cooing and making sweet happy noises. We did some tummy time so he could work on his head control. He does really well with that. Gets those legs kicking too. We love play time. But mama love snuggle time even more. We get a lot of that!!
