Getting Bigger
Slowly, but surely we are seeing more signs of Logan getting bigger…
Logan’s weight is now up to approximately 2lb. 5oz. – we’re not exactly sure how accurate this is because he’s retaining some fluid from his days on the Pavulon, but the nurses think that it’s a fairly accurate weight. This means that he’s now about a pound heavier!
The other day, we noticed that Logan sounded like he’s wheezing. The nurses said that his ET (breathing) tube is leaking… basically, he’s growing and now there’s some space around his tube that’s letting some of the vent air escape. Unfortunately, he’s still too small for the next size up in ET tubes, so they’re having to compensate by increasing his vent settings.
Logan is also getting longer and just seems to getting bigger overall…
