Trying it off the c-pap part two

A week has passed since the last attempt off of the c-pap so they are trying Josh again on the high flow nasal cannula. We hope that this time he will do well enough to stay off the c-pap but if he has a lot of bradycardia they will put him back on the c-pap for another week.

Josh just hit the five pound mark and is growing well. He's still puffy so they are trying to give him the right amount of calories without too much extra fluid.  But, his growth remains on the 50th percentile line which is right where they want to keep him.

Update: Josh is back on the Cpap. After trying to change his gavage to his nose he got upset and was no longer tolerating the high flow.
