Julie's Boggle

Lots has happened since the last blog posting. So much, in fact that we haven’t had time to update the blog.

Here’s a quick run-down:

• Julie came home on Saturday.
• Jonathan started coming off the CPAP machine on Sunday evening.
• We attempted to breastfeed on Sunday evening while he was still on the CPAP machine, but with no success.
• On Monday morning Jonathan came completely off all assisted breathing and moved to low dependency.
• Julie and I moved into a room in the hospital so that Julie could be available for 3 hourly feeds.
• Julie and Jonathan spent more time figuring out the breast feeding thing between them and they are getting the hang of it slowly.
• Jonathan is still getting supplemental feeds via his stomach tube until he gets good at breastfeeding.
• Mel, the nurse from Great Ormond Street is coming today to assess his cleft lip and how it affects feeding.
• Jonathan should be able to come home at the end of the week!

We have plenty more pictures of him off the machine but no time to put them up right now. Stay tuned…
