The swelling in Jetty's eyes have gone down a lot. Hopefully he will be able to open them today. They also have turned the oxygen down a lot and he seems to be doing fine. He is however doing a lot of twitching with his arms and legs. Are they seizures? Are they just normal baby movements? That is what is frustrating.They are supposed to do another EEG today to check for seizures.

Oh, My!!! Jetty gets cuter everyday!!! I LOVED the hiccups!!
Keep up to good work, Jetty! Open those eyes so you can see the people who love you most. Hugs and kisses from cousin Susie and Thom.
You are a little fighter, Jetty -- We know we are going to see those eyes open... so you can see that wonderful family you have!
We had our baby in March and he started having seizures the day after he was born (We were in the Christiana NICU). The way they told us if we could tell if they were normal baby movements or seizures is if the twitching still happens when you apply pressure to his limbs. Not comforting, but that's what we know. We are following baby Jetty every hour on the blog and because we understand what you are going through and that it is so, so hard. Prayer changes things and we are praying for him. We wish you lots of good news and to be able to take him home soon.
