Well we always know when Weston isn't feeling good, it is when he doesn't sleep laying flat and wakes up at night. Well come to found out this morning that Weston has another ear infection. Our poor baby, we can't seem to shake them.
He has been doing great on oral feeds, taking 16 oz a day and he was 20lbs and 5 oz at the doctor's office today so that is really exciting. So means he is gaining weight.which is really exciting. Only problem that since he has the ear infection he doesn't want to eat like he should, guess we'll give him a day and see what tomorrow holds. The other fun part is trying to give him medicines since we are used to putting them down his NG tube, he is having a fun time spitting them back out at us.
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.
