A had a tough night last night. He stopped breathing. They had to give him oxygen and a dose of anti-narcotic. His lungs had stopped due to the pain medication. After the anti-narcotic he snapped right back. It was the scariest thing I've even seen in my life....never again.
On a better note, the preliminary test for CF has come back negative! They will test for more rare strands but for now, we are convinced, no CF in our house!
He has also eaten for the first time in days. He was alert and looking for more afterwards.
Thank you for your support, he sure is getting those prayers!

Breathing a huge sigh of relief for you guys right now but will continue sending the good juju.
Wow. Just read the latest 2 posts to get updated. Girls, my thoughts are with you both right now. Awesome that the test was negative. Continued prayers for a very speedy recovery for A. xo
How scary about the stopping breathing! Glad the CF test has come back negative, and still sending lots of positive thoughts to the three of you!
Amen!
YaY! That is awesome news! Such a scary road you have traveled so far in your parenting. I can't even imagine.
So relieved by the negative. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. I'm sorry there are so many scary moments for you right now, but I feel deeply that all will be OK. Do you need anything???
That would be so terrifying and I am saying a thank you prayer that the test was negative and he is improving!
OMG. I just got back from a vacation and have been reading your story. First of all congratulations on the delivery of your beautiful baby boy! Secondly, I'm so sorry you are enduring this. Thankfully the CF test is negative. Thinking of you right now!
wow.
I am so happy that A. seems to be doing better and that the CF test was negative!!!
He is such a trooper and we are continuing to send our prayers!
What wonderful news on the CF test. So sorry for the scary/awful night. A is a trooper--he is a strong little man. Baby steps til you get him home again.
xoxoxo
I'm sorry you all had such a rough night, but I am thrilled to here of the negative CF test! I will keep checking in to see how little A is doing! =0)
Just came over from the Lost and Found to let you know that you three will be in my thoughts and prayers. It all sounds very scary right now and I am wishing you much peace in the midst of everything.
Phew. So glad to hear that things are falling more securely into the negative camp. That must be a BIG comfort to you both.
I can't even imagine the scare of watching my little boy stop breathing. You guys have had so many curve balls thrown at you - hopefully there will be no more & before you know it, the three of you will be at home where you belong!
Oh you two must be exhausted with worry! I am thinking about you and little A all the time and wishing him much health.
I'm glad that CF has been banished from your house and hopefully a healthy baby will soon be in it's place!
Wow. What a horrifying wild ride. I'm glad he's progressing so quickly and I hope he continues on the same track.
No CF...No CF...No CF...No CF... No CF...No CF... No CF...No CF... No CF...No CF... No CF...No CF... No CF...No CF...
THinking of you three very often...
Thinking of you.
Thank God. I hope everything gets better from here. I'm so sorry that this has been such a scary time for you all.
Kiss that little guy for me!
Much much much much much love and light coming your way.
Me too, me too. So glad you got good news.
i went away for the weekend and just got caught up today!! i'm so sorry to hear what is happening, but it's looking like he is doing better already! you have a tough little guy and i'm wishing you all the blessing in the world...
i can't imagine the terror of the moment he stopped breathing. oh, friends, i am so sorry that you felt that sucker punch. but god bless the doctors who revived him. A is such a strong boy, and clearly wants to be here with you.
may it all be smooth sailing from here. and lots of rest for all of you.
we continue to hold you up over here.
Oh that is wonderful! Thank you God! Holding you all up in prayer.
I can't even begin to imagine how terrifying that was for your family. Thank goodness he snapped back so quickly. Congrats on his first meal and the neg tests!
How frightening! I'm keeping you in my thoughts and hoping things just keep getting better. ox
You don't know me - this is my first visit to your blog but I wanted to say that I am praying for you all as your navigate their path ahead.
My daughter stopped breathing once - actually more than once over the years but the first time is seared into my memory. I do not wish that visual on anyone and I am so sorry it happened to you. I am thrilled for the preliminary negative on the testing and over the moon that A is back in your arms.
I'll be back often to check on you and offer you my support. Big hugs to you both - this is such a sucky way to start out on the parenting journey. :(
Over from Casey's blog, wishing you all the best, sending healing positive loving vibes to you all.
