Luke is doing better today. In fact I got to hold him for a long time today, which was wonderful after not being able to for a few days. He is breathing well and they increased his feeds a little more today and then a little more tonight. They did find his C-reactive protein elevated slightly which means that he could have developed some sort of infection, but it's nothing serious and it could even be viral. They have had problems with his IV's, which is normal for babies to have tricky veins to work with, so this evening they had to put an IV in his head, which as un-nerving as it sounds, it is actually normal for babies.
Here are his latest statistics:
6lbs. 9.5oz
18.6" long
We were glad to see that even with his set back he still had decent growth.
