Nathan is back in the hospital...

Well, we went for Nathan's first check-up this morning. Needless to say, Jen and Nathan are still at the hospital. I'm at home staying with Nicholas. All at home seemed fine with Nathan, but when they took his temperature this morning at the doc it was 94 degrees. So, they waited a little bit to see if it would go up if we wrapped him up some more. Nope, didn't happen. Thus, we were admitted back into Keller.

They brought up an incubator and turned that bad boy on. Within 3-4 hours, Nathan's temperature was reading 98.2. Thus, that seemed to do that job. However, his bilirubin level was elevated around 17. So, now they are monitoring that and trying to figure out via bloodwork why his temperature was so low. Was it due to an infection of some type? Who knows, but we should find out more tomorrow. So, that is the update for tonight. Jen and Nathan are in room 409 at Keller. If you would like to call, the number to the room is 386-4409. L8r...
