Aydeen pix

The first picture of the little boy. Allready in NICU because of low glucose levels. So he is around two hours old. I couldn't attend the ceasarean and they didn't have any waiting area. So I didn't het any update until Noirda was back. So they kept feeding him and pricking his heel to check the glucose level to see it was OK.

Next time I saw him he had breating aparatus, ecg electrodes, blood pressure metre, and oxygen level meter and was all stuck in his bed. That was a bit scary.
Basically didn't get the gluccose levels up so he got an IV tube for that.
Than he started to have problem breathing hence all the equipment plus antibiotics cause they suspected an infection to cause the breathing problem. Talk about fast baby 4 hours and allready an infection.

And how he is now. Still getting some oxygen boost and still having the electrodes and stuff but he got a normal bed and the infection seem to be gone. Just have slightly irregular respiratory rate (he keep breathing more than 80 times a minute sometimes and the doctors don't like that)



Oh, yeah, that is not really all. He got a bit of jaundice (dunno the spelling) so he is under the UV light to help his liver.
His mother is quite OK just sore.
