Wyatt continues to tolerate his feeds and in fact had his first real poop! The doctors are encouraged that he is not only digesting the food but passing it as well. The doctors turned down settings on Wyatt's ventilator again today and he now 10 breaths per minute away from getting moved to a cpap machine. Once he is on this machine Jamie and I will be able to hold our little man! I am trying to take all this stride but it is really hard when he is doing so good.

I have purposely not been reading this thread. My wife is 14 weeks pregnant right now and i could'nt imagine. I respect and admire the strength you are showing and have kept your family in our prayers.

Well, they lowered Wyatt's vent settings again tonight. He is now at 20 breaths per minute which means he is only five breaths per minute from possibly being moved to a different less invasive breathing machine! I am blown away at how well Wyatt is doing right now. It just seems to good to be true, considering he wasn't doing so hot at the beginning of the week. We will take it though with no questions asked.

Great news lucas God is great, and we give all the praise and glory to him for answering our prayers for his precious angel baby Wyatt.

It looks like Wyatt will be switched to the new vent tomorrow. They started caffeine today to help with the apnea all preemies have. Looks like things are on the up and up. I said a little prayer to today to thank God for his help and instilling the will that Wyatt has. Wyatt could go back on the old vent but any progress even short lived is good.

That's great Lucas. Seems like the little man has made significant progress in the last week.

That boy said he is ready for some turkey and cornbread dressing.

Thanks for the update! The will of God, You, Momma and Wyatt will make this work! You're still on our minds in the Fisher household!

God Bless!

The doctors decided to move Wyatt off the conventional vent to a CPAP machine this morning. The doctors feel like he has a 50/50 chance of this working the first time. They are asking his little body to do a lot on its own so it's anyone's guess as to whether it works or not. I am cautiously optimistic that this works but we will be ok if he has to be put back on the regular vent. I'll keep everyone posted as always and as always I ask that you say a little prayer that he has the strength needed to stay on this new ventilator.
