We got a call from the nurse around 7:30 this morning to tell us that David is back on CPAP due to the many episodes he was having, some of which needed stimulation. These episodes are either desats (when his oxygen levels go down), bradycardias (when his heart rate slows too much), or apneas (when he forgets to breathe). I am thinking he has reflux, because he seems so "uncomfortable" and has been fussy - acting like a different baby than the one we have been watching over the last week. He is now so squirmy and was arching his back a lot and making coughing sounds while laying on my chest.
On the positive side, both babies have continued to gain weight! David is 3 lbs, 12 oz., and Margot is 3 lbs, 3 oz.
