Solomon is back on his full feeds now since being off the IV. He is up 10 grams today. The doctors decided to start him on steroids to hopefully give his lungs a boost and get him ready to be extubated soon. They said not to be freaked out if I googled "steroid treatment + preemies" because they used to do higher doses for longer and the side effects could be severe. Now they do lower doses for short periods of time and the side effects are less risky. Thanks to everyone for your continued support and prayers.
I like his sponge bob blanket!!! Maybe he'll look like Larry the Lobster after the steroids! 😉
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping!
DeleteStarting him early on the steroids? He'll be ready to impress the bros at the gym in no time!
ReplyDeleteCan you knit him up a couple of ankle weights?
