Thursday, August 21, 2008 - New Bed

Aiden had a big day today. He got transferred out of his incubator and into a bed with a warmer. The bed is now open to the world. The warmer will kick on depending upon Aiden's temperature.
Grandma stole Aiden out of his new bed.


In addition to his new bed, the nurses also changed his high flow cannula to a low flow cannula. This is the tube in his nostrils in which he gets oxygen support. Aiden can go home on a low flow cannula. Yet another requirement has been met for going home. Now the only other requirements are for him to be able to control his own temperature and be able to drink milk on his own. He is doing both of these items right now to a certain extent, but he just needs to do them more consistently.

Aiden now weighs 3 lbs - 15 oz. One ounce away from 4lbs!

Keep praying for Aiden
