Hooray for poop! And other good news
Tiegan pooped a little bit last night and again today, forestalling any further unpleasant intestinal studies at least for a while. Also, the echocardiogram showed that the PDA has closed, and Tiegan's aorta is normal. We had back-burnered that concern, but it was a big one and it's great to shed it. Tiegan's vitals have been solid and we started "kangaroo care" yesterday-- holding Tiegan skin-to-skin on our chests-- which is supposed to be great for the little guy and is definitely great for his parents.
