the coolest thing about this whole blog and the huge community of faith that surrounds our family is that when i'm by conley's incubator, and the nurses are telling me what is going on with him and what the next steps are, i can bring those needs, concerns, milestones, right to you all and we can pray specifically for what's on his little plate. thanks for being so faithful to stand with us in prayer and in support of our little guy. THANKS SO MUCH for all your wonderful comments. they really bless us and mean a lot to us, more than you all know.
well... he's still doing well off the respirator, and they're just hoping his blood gas levels don't spike up, in which case he'd need a break from breathing on his own. he's breathing room air right now, no extra oxygen, which is great. tomorrow they want to start feeding him breastmilk. that can be tough on little guys whose stomachs are so immature. please pray that he surprises us again and just digests it really well. the sooner he can start drinking milk, the better for him, his weight, and the development of all his organs. also, they're hoping to take one of the IV lines out of his tummy today. that's good. thanks be to God for each step of progress. we know that with a situation like this, setbacks are very common, and we'll be prepared for that. until then, we revel in every hurdle that he overcomes.
