After a rough morning, I couldn't get moving & then Bridgette's car had a flat tire, we made it to the hospital. My brain finally came back today & I was able to comprehend what was happening at the hospital better. Today was an improvement as far as Conner's breathing. He was moved from the C-PAP ventilator to a Vapotherm machine (humidified oxygen canula.) Conner's oxygen levels in his blood were good so he was reduced from 4.0 LPM of oxygen at 37% to 35% at 6pm. (Ms. Linda, the Respitory Therapist, told us that this was really good because on September 1st he was on 97% oxygen.) A phototherapy light was added to the front of Conner's crib because his Jaundice levels were high. Conner seemed to really enjoy laying in the light.
