Today Austin is doing well. His xrays and scans on his belly and chest are normal. He has a strong heartbeat, with no murmurs. His blood gas is back to normal, and he is negative for the RSV. HIs blood cultures are still showing no signs of infection. He has gained another ounce *2 lbs 2 oz* and he looks great. The doctors and nurses have put their "heads" together, and they are pretty sure the uprise of his A's and B's is from reflux. The majority of the time they're increased are during and after feeds. He is now on a thrity minute pumped feeds. So far, so good! My husband said Austin had his eyes wide open most of the time he was there this morning ((mommy's not feeling well, so I'll be staying behind for a few days)).
Thank you for your continual prayers!!! God Bless!

With this blog you will be able to check up on the progress Austin is making while in the NICU. He has quite a long stay ahead of him, but is such a strong little guy with so much life in him all ready! With the strength and power of GOD, Austin is a miracle, just working on getting home!
