Cayden had another uneventful night, with one slight exception-2 poopy diapers! We're told this is good news. Dr. Goldman just ordered a blood gas check, to make sure his CO2 is not creeping up again. Hopefully we'll get good news. As far as other news, we don't have much to share. Still not sure about the cause of the anemia. Cayden has a hernia, which is typical in preemies and will be corrected surgically at some point in the future. He has a PDA, patent ductus arteriosis, a heart duct that is open during pregnancy but closes after birth. It can stay open in preemies for a while. PDAs can be fixed with medicaion or surgery. Unfortunately, Cayd is not a candidate for the medication bc of his kidney functioning, but as it's not bothering him at all, it's something to be figured out later.
I'm being discharged today, but will be spending most of my time here. Thank you all for the incredible outpouring of support. We are so grateful for our amazing circle of strength and we know Cayden feels it too.
