Tonight Patrick weighed in at 2 lbs 12 oz! He's finally on the upswing with his weight. They increased his feedings to 12ccs every 3 hours, and he had a disgusting poop tonight. I almost took a picture, but I think the world is glad I didn't.

His day nurse let us know that this afternoon they did hear the heart murmer again, so they will do the Echocardiogram (I said EKG before, I was wrong!) tomorrow. Hopefully if that PDA is still open in his heart, it will close with Indocin. Indocin seems to be a pretty amazing drug. I took it for awhile when I was in the hospital to reduce the amount of amniotic fluid and the other bonus side effect is that it works as a sort of muscle relaxant. If they have to, they'll give him 3 or 4 doses and if that doesn't do it, we'll have to do the heart surgery like Will had. But we don't know yet, and I'll find out tomorrow what the plan will be.

Patrick is still breathing well, and he was a lot calmer today when we were there. His feet felt cold to me, so I bought him some tiny little socks. They're adorable, but they don't stay on.

And one more picture... just because.

And if you're wondering, I don't know if Jon will get a tattoo for Patrick. I think that will be decided later.
