Tucker Lee arrived on May 20th at 12:31pm. He weighed in at 8lbs. 5 oz and 20 inches long. He did awesome during delivery & his first night in the NICU. On day 1 they started to wean his oxygen and he was doing well until the evening when he desaturated twice. They had to start over with the weaning of oxygen on day 2 and increased his meds to make him more comfortable and less excited. He did awesome that day and thru the night. Today is day 3 and they are continuing to wean in the hopes of getting him to 60 so they can do surgery to repair his hernia tomorrow. They were able to install a PICC line successfully and keeping him very sleepy.
All in all they are very happy with his progress.
Hoping all continues to go well & we'll have surgery tomorrow!
