One step closer to coming home!
We spent our first night with Gavin last night. He was moved to a room yesterday afternoon. The surgical unit is so full that Gavin is sharing a room with another heart baby. We were so proud of Gavin, he slept most of the night, we had to wake him up for every feeding. However, Mommy and Daddy had NO sleep, due to nurses coming in and out, lights be turned off and on, Mommy being paranoid checking on Gavin every secound, and the other heart baby cried most of the night. We had fun though actually getting to play the part as his parents. They are allowing us to do most of the work! Gavin pulled out his feeding tube last night, the nurses left it out for a little bit to see if he would drink all of his bottle. He drank all of it but 15cc out of 50cc. So they had to put the tube back in. The surgeon came in today and took out Gavins pacemaker wires, and draining tube! He said that Gavin is doing great and expects us to be at home by the beginning of the week as long as Gavin continues to drink most of his bottle. We are so excited, we never thought this moment would come! Well I better get back to Gavin, just thought I would give a quick update!! We will post more pics later. Love you all!
