Let’s see. Haven’t updated in awhile. Right now, I’m up late just having got done working on an Apache server with Drewberry. Heidi is in bed early because we have to get up early tomorrow. Rhys has an upper GI scan scheduled. He’s refluxing some of his food. Which is why he is having problems with the periodic feeds. If he is fed little amounts at a time he doesn’t seem to have an issue. They are worried about him having a blockage of some sort in his system. Right now it’s unknown, but this will tell us for sure if there is a problem of this type or not.

He’s taking medicines to help with the reflux. It could be he just has reflux… If he’s anything like daddy, I’m sure this is it. :) If we find this to be the case, then they can be more aggresive with the meds toward helping that particular issue.

For awhile he was back on the CPAP and he hated every second of it. They did this to help with his breathing. Couple days back he had a rough day and they thought he was just tiring out. So they put him back on continuous feeds, and back on CPAP to give him a break. He hates CPAP. I just kept thinking that they just need to slow the feeds and give him more lung treatments. But, they know best… The next day found Rhys’ CPAP discontinued…. because he didn’t need it…. I swear…

Pretty much everyday she can, Heidi has been holding him for extended periods. Yesterday he even tried breast feeding… Didn’t quite do it, but it’s a start. His primary nurse was surprised to hear about it (it was her day off) and said that it was a brave move. She wouldn’t have done it, because he could have aspirated the milk… She said it was too early. But, each nurse is different and has their own opinion. I tend to go with his primary nurses since they know him quite well now.

I got to hold Rhys last week, and it was great. :) Here’s some pics of us.

Last but not least, here’s a pic of Rhys’ room. Heidi did the painting and it turned out great if you ask me. :)

Well, that’s the news, and I’m off to bed. :) See you guys on the flip side!
