Sean's Journey 7.31.11

Great news!   Sean has a really good day yesterday and good night.
He is stronger and sleeps a lot more since having the blood transfusion a few days ago.  

Mommy spoke with the nurse this morning and Sean had a quiet and stable night.
(Love the word "stable"!) 

He only had 1 or 2 Apnea/Bradycardia episodes during feedings.  He did not DSAT at all. 
When his oxygen drops it is called a DSAT, defined as: Desaturation is a decrease in the percentage of oxygen found in the circulating blood supply.

FYI....at room air we breathe 21% oxygen.  This is where Sean needs to be eventually.  The RNs are giving Sean a little extra oxygen...28% - 30%.  Please pray that his oxygen will regulate itself and he will not need the additional oxygen. 

More good news...Sean now weighs 3 lbs. 3.2 oz!
