We gave B a 'bed bath' this evening. After his poo explosion yesterday and being covered in residual stickiness from all the dots, tape and dressings, he definitely needed it.
Then he got to put on clothes. They've just decided to keep the last peripheral line in his foot for now as a precaution and it doesn't fit in his growsuit so we left that foot out. His swaddle bag went nicely over the top. I put him in it, pulled the bottom zip up a little and threaded all his monitoring wires through before hooking them back up again. Snuggly. :)
Oh and today he had his nasogastric tube out. He also had another echocardiogram and ECG as well as a chest xray. Echo and ECG were fine except the echo did show a tiny leak at the edge of the patch and they found that 2nd VSD again but it is smaller and they are confident that both things will close by themselves in time. The chest xray showed a few dark patches on his lungs. Shouldn't mean any major problems, just something they're keeping an eye on.
