Raphael weighed in at 10.97kg today. This is a good result! His head circumference is big but he is still very short.
He was a little sick and so the paed gave us a script for antibiotics. She reassured us that his vomit in CPAP two days ago doesn't appeared to have had any detrimental effect on him.
We also talked about our concern over Raphael's speech and she gave us some ideas on avenues we could go down to ultimately improve his communication.
After the consualtion we ran into one of Raphael's intensive care consultants and we had a brief chat about his mask getting to small for him. She kindly went and got a batch of masks that were around his size but there wasn't one that was going to fit him. She said that she would contact her interstate colleagues and see if there was anything that might fit Raphael. In the mean time she gave us a maks that we can attack with some scissors to try to get it to fit.
