Baby Holden Update

Great news...the echocardiogram shows significant improvement in the reduction of pressure in Holden's heart. This means the medication seems to be working and the pulmonary hypertension appears to be under control. Also, the ultra sound report of his kidneys came back normal. So our prayers continue to be answered!

Today, Holden took 35 of 40 ccs of his bottle and also did great during his massage/stretching session with Miss Meg. We are so proud of our little munchkin for continuing to work so hard to get well so he can come home!

Holden has been having very good days, but the past couple of nights, he has been extremely irritable. We're not sure if it is reflux, colic or something in his milk. Doctors discussed experimenting with his milk/formula - to see if there is something in his or Mommy's diet contributing to his irritability. Mommy is now on a calcium free diet the next couple of weeks to see if that helps!! Whatever it takes to help our little guy feel better.

Thank you again for all of the support and prayers. We look forward to the day, in the near future, when y'all can meet our sweet baby boy!
