What??! Its only been about a month ....or so.....

OK, ok I know I am REALLY Bad at this! Sorry its been so busy with work and suregeries ann ear infections and possible RSV, that I haven't had time to update.

Here goes:

Surgery went very well. Did have adenoids removed and tubes placed also had brochoscopy. Air way looks great. He did have allot of trouble breathing after the surgery. He was up to 1 liter of O2. They kept us over one night, tried for two but I begged to go home. They let us go once we got him back to his base O2 requirements of 300cc's. Ever since the surgery he has had a really bad cough. We went to his pedi 3 days after surgery they said it was upper airway from having the adenoids out. Well here we are almost three weeks later still with the cough. So over the weekedn I gave him nebs every 4 hours, didn't help. Called pumonary no avail apts so we went to pedi thinks possible RSV because his lungs are so full of gunk and boogie nose etc. Did not do swab though so won't know for sure. He is now on albuterol and Orapred for 5 days. If this doesn't work we will have to go back to the doctors.

As for his weight, this is becoming another issue. He is still 15lbs 12oz. Hasn't gained anything sionce January 3rd. Watching this for now.

Had our NICU follow up clinic last week Dr Bream was wonderful said Bryce is doing great developmentally he sees no issues at all. Aside from the expected delays. They say Bryce is at a 5 month level. He is 10 months real age, 6 months adjusted age so he is about 1 month behind his adjusted age. We are working on rolling over and sitting up , both are very difficult for him to do, but I'm sure he'll get it soon!

He is still stinking cute, I can't even stand him!

See told you! This pic is from right before is surgery. See his cute little johnny

Practicing getting his feet and trying to roll over! Look at the FAT legs!!! I love em! Oh can you tell he is a binky lover! Every picture he's eating it! I'll have to try getting one of his face and not the binky!

My Happy little guy beating up his toys!

Also just quickly, I wanted to start putting the word out that I am starting a team for the March for Babies event on April 20 in Worcester. I will have my team name etc.. set up soon with more details on the walk and donating etc.., but for anyone who may be interested in walking and/or donating with us for Bryce please let me know. I'd like to get a large team together for him . Leave me a comment with your email address and I will send the info over. Please tell anyone who you think would be interested in supporting Bryce and the March of Dimes. Its a great cause and with out them my little guy wouldn't be here. The March of Dimes had a huge part in bringing Bryce from this:

To This:

So think about it and let me know if you are interested and once I get all the info I will forward it on to everyone.

Thanks for your support.
