[Bjarki was more his old self today, and they decided to use the opportunity since his IV was still in and give him more blood to “top him off”. He’s still “desatting” etc. but that’just “what he does” .] Bjarki var meira “hann sjálfur” í dag. Það var ákveðið að nota tækifærið fyrst hann varRead more
[Small update on today: Bjarki kept having a bad day after I left, and the docs decided to give him a blood transfusion around dinner-time. So far it sounds from the nurse that he’s doing better now, but it’s another wait-and-see. Also, I’m posting a couple of pictures taken last Sunday.] Smá uppfærsla: Bjarki héltRead more

[Quiet on the news front. I went to work but Hrefna went to the hospital and held Bjarki Freyr for an hour and a half. He was calm throughout, except for a short spell towards the end where he had one apnea episode. Grandma Anna and I went to the hospital after dinner and BjarkiRead more
[Grandma Anna took Anna Sólrún out to play again this morning so Hrefna and I got to sleep in again, second day in a row. What a luxury! 🙂 Just after 11am we got out the door; Hrefna to the hospital to see Bjarki while I took Anna to Nate’s birthday party – Nate isRead more
[Grandma Anna woke up at her usual time, 7am and took Anna Sólrún out to play so that us tired parents could sleep in. They hadn’t come back from the playground when we finally got up, so we used the opportunity to take a look at an apartment for rent nearby. The apartment turned outRead more
[Anna officially graduated from her old daycare class today! There was a big party with lots of food and drinks and all the kids got diplomas and a folder with pictures, projects and their evaluation. They kids were all happy and behaved very well, and every parent beamed with pride. 🙂 Bjarki still hangs onRead more
[I went to see Bjarki at noon today, just like every other day. He is still on the CPAP, but getting tired of all the hard work. The doctors decided to lower the pressure holding his lungs open in the hope that it will make his breathing easier. They want to avoid for as longRead more
[Bjarki Freyr turns 2 weeks (or 28 weeks) old in 2 hours. He’s currently stable and still on the CPAP (not ventilator). He has a tendency to loose oxygen saturation and also to “Brady” (heart rate goes down below 100 or so) but that’s all pretty standard preemie stuff. When Anna Sr. and I arrivedRead more
[Short blog, am about to collapse into bed. Visited Bjarki Freyr around lunchtime today, and he was still on the CPAP (not ventilator). Got to change his diaper and took his temperature before the nurse got him comfortable in another position. Held his hand while he calmed down. We noticed that he’s started getting tinyRead more
