You guuuuuuuiiiiiiiiiiiise. Josh has been on oxygen at night for the last couple of months. But today he was cleared to go off it!!! Forever!!! And the stupid pulse ox monitor, too!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. I am so excited! I have dreamed of this day and I thought it might not come till like 2029. BUT IT"S HERE. Andplusalso no more beep beep beep beep beep all.night.long. Andplusalsosomemore he can go out and be near other people in March!!!!!! 

I am also a little nervous... what do I do with a kid when I can't see his heart rate or oxygen saturation right away. But I'll take the nerves!!!

    Congrats!!! That's so exciting!

    The nerves will dissipate, promise. I was nervous too about taking LO off o2 and the pulse ox and we actually kept her on the pulse ox an extra couple days just to make sure she was maintaining. I also didn't really make a big deal of telling people because I was afraid of jinxing things. Enjoy!! :)

    I was all set to put him on the monitor last night just to calm my nerves, and my adorable little child kicked his foot against the crib and broke the sensor! I guess he was done with it, too :) I did get up a couple of times and check on him but he was sound asleep and had no problems!

    Haha that's hilarious! He knew he was done :) They always seem to know... The day LO was going to get her NG tube out, by the time the nurse came in to remove it, she had already pulled it out herself! Silly babes!!

    P.S. He's ADORABLE!!!

    They are too smart for their own good! That's too funny about the NG tube. She was probably like DO I HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING MYSELF FINE I WILL. And thank you!

    Woohoo, a wireless baby! Wonderful news! Congratulations! 

    PS. He is so stinking cute in that helmet! When DD came out of her helmet we kept it as a "trophy" and now one of her stuffed bears wears it. ;)

    I love that idea! The kid has enough stuffed animals to pick from; we may as well dress at least one up! :) And thank you!
