Definitely thought I'd be updating more belly pics before adding baby pics, but who am I to argue with Cayden's decision to join us early. It's tough to keep up with updates via emails, so I'll try to do so here. Day 2 of life and baby Cayd is holding his own. Dr. Slagle, our favorite neonatologist, says he is making progress. Still no answer to why he was so anemic, which is the big mystery they're working on. More blood tests on baby and mama will be done this week. His edema is better and he looks scrawnier, which is a good thing. His CO2 jumped a bit today, so they turned his vent up to give him more breaths per minute and he's responding. Having Grammy here is a lifesaver and we're taking each hour/day as it comes. So far, so good.
