The morning report

I've just spent an hour with Will this morning. He pretty much slept the whole time, but it was great to sit and watch him. This morning he is a tad smaller. Down to 39cm. This is consistant with the weird smaller in the morning, bigger in the afternoon theory. Having said that, he did look smaller me today than previously (I think previous morning size was 39.5). He has also managed to win the battle against all breathing assistance. The nose thingy has also been removed (I think largely because he kept pulling it out). They have said that they may put it back if he starts to struggle with his breathing. His feeding continued overnight. He continues to eat well, but is still supplemented by the drip. I asked the doctor when they would take the drip out. He said at this rate it would be in the next few days. That would be great as it would mean it is a lot easier to pick him up etc. As for further tests, nothing as yet. An update on Jules. After having the stitches out she's moving a lot more freely and is down do taking only panadol. I am returning to work today, but will continue to spend my time bouncing back and forward to the hospital. Perhaps not as much time in waiting rooms, so a few less updates to the blog. Thanks so much for your continued thoughts and prayers. Our prayer is now that he starts to process the fluid on his own. This would be the most desirable outcome. We may never have the explanation as to the cause, but I'd be happy to be ignorant if he recovers on his own.
