He is over 2 months old now. He should be 37 weeks now. He is still intubated. They have tried to extubate him twice, but he just wasn't ready. He does have Bronchopulmonary dysplagia, which is a lung disease of prematurity. Other than that, all signs are good. So far there is no bleed in the brain, which is awesome!!!
Edited for more info: My friend's baby was born at 25 weeks by emergency c-section due to placental abruption.

Re: Hey Shellshockedmama...Update on my friend's baby
OMG!! that is absolutely amazing and wonderful update, well obviously not about him still needing to be intubated. But he seems to be doing so well after such a horribly rough start. I'll continue to pray for him. Thank you for the update.
I hope you are well too btw

Thank you for keeping them in your prayers. It has been rough on them, both physically and emotionally. But, they are a strong, Christian couple and just in awe of them every day. I am going to PM you their Caring Bridge site if you want to keep up with his progress.
Congrats on your LO!!!
I'm hanging in there...just waiting my turn
and hoping that day comes soon.
