Day 54,
Ronan had another crappy day today, pretty bad actually with his oxygen etc.. It was the worst we have seen him up & down since the first week of birth.. They have started to give him some special medicine in his milk which is like caffine for the brain to trigger the part of his brain to start breathing.. Almost every premmie has this medicine when they are so small because they don't normally get this function happening until they are 35/36wks however being premmie their brain has to start so much earlier..
He was weighed again today and now weighs 2478 grams!
Total Weight Gain To Date: 1338 grams
