Well we are slowly working on eating. Weston is so picky, we are so excited that finally he is actually taking the bottle again. The most he took today at one setting was 18cc which when you think that 29cc makes up an ounce we have a long way to go but it is better than anything. We are working on spoon feeding also, and he is doing really good he takes at least 5 bites before he is done. We haven't been able to get him to take anything to solid he starts to gag once he gets it in his mouth, so that is really frustrating because he wants everything that we are eating which is awesome just wish he didn't gag. His OT said that it is just going to take time. Tonight we took out his NG tube after his last night feeding so for the first time in a long time he can sleep without it, always hate having to put it back down but don't mind :) don't want a G tube especially since he doesn't need one we just have to work.
We are also working on stand which I can't believe my baby is standing, grow up to fast, I am so proud of him. He still hates tummy time but I don't blame him.
The majority of CDHs occur on the left side. The hole allows the contents of the abdomen (stomach, intestine, liver, spleen, and kidneys) to go up into the fetal chest. The herniation of these abdominal organs into the chest occupies that space and prevents the lungs from growing to normal size. The growth of both lungs can be affected. This is called pulmonary hypoplasia.
