Back on Continuous Feed

Just a quick update- Mitchell did not keep all of his feeding down yesterday and ended up a bit dehydrated. This morning they switched him back to the slower continuous feed and added the Prevacid (other reflux medication). The plan was to attempt the bottle and bolus again tomorrow, but he did spit up a couple of times today (smaller amounts/not as concerning); however, he needs to be able to tolerate the slow feed to advance. This is not a big surprise as babies s/p his big surgery tend to have feeding issues; but we are hoping he can tolerate a bit of a progression.
On a continued positive note- follow-up cranial ultrasound showed even more improvement today- "unremarkable" is the term used by the Radiologist. No evidence of a bleed; still monitoring to ensure no added pressure since the event- possibly still a little swelling on the scan, but the Neuro-surgeon did not indicate concern. Praise the Lord for quick resolution of his hemorrhage!
Continue to pray for his feeding issues as well as strength for the family. Jodi hasn't left Mitchell since Sunday & is getting a little tired. The girls enjoyed their time in Athens with the Hockemas & are back with Daddy tonight. Jodi is eager to see them in the morning.
We can't thank you enough for your support- your prayers for Mitchell mean so much to us.
