Another "maybe tomorrow"




Now it "looks" like tomorrow we'll be going home. They want to monitor him for a bit longer while he is off his oxygen. I am good with that because I wasn't convinced that he was going to do so well without the oxygen, after having been on it for the last 4 weeks. He had his suck/swallow test this morning and didn't do so good. He was aspirating a little so they want to continue the tube feeding and repeat the test in 6 weeks. Switch will be going to therapy to work on his suck reflexes and the therapist gave me a list of things to do while administering his feeds. I am going to give him a bath and we are going to do some reading. He slept all day so I am sure we'll cover all of the Grimm fairy tales.

I have posted a few videos on you tube, here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/user/mommy2switch

Thanks, again, for the prayers. We love you all.
