Update #35 for Wyatt Paul Sherwood
9.13.21
Wyatt's blood work came back great. He is also doing amazing on the nose cannula and hasn't shown any bradycardia's. He also is taking his 39ml of feeds really well. He also is taking them over 40 min (that has gone down). They said he is doing really well with his suckling motions and not getting too tired with the paci which is promising. Once he gets down to 2 on the vaportherm (he is on 4 right now) he will be able to bottle/breast feed.

These are the qualifications for Wyatt to get home too: eating a full bottle or "feed" without problems, be able to regulate his body temperature in a crib (he is still in an islet), be on room air, no cords and pass the carseat test.
Carseat Test: must sit in thd carseat for 90 to 120 minutes or the length of the car ride home (45 min), whichever is longer. During the test, the nurse will monitor your babyβs heart rate, breathing and oxygen level. As long as there is no change and he can hold his head up okay, without problem than he passes!
I can't thank the doctors, nurses and everyone that has been caring for us all during this time.
πππ» Thank you so much Wyatt's Warriors, please keep the prayers coming! ππ»π
