Follow-up EKG and Caleb Video

Today was a big day for us, as we had the follow up EKG for Caleb at St. Josephs Hospital in downtown Phoenix.  We weren’t very nervous about it for some reason, but we took a ride down there about noon to get the test done.  It was a bit of an ordeal.  The test only takes a good minute or less to “run” but it was tough getting 8 different electrodes hooked up to a screaming pooping baby.  As soon as they called his name to come back in the exam room he pooped his guts out…I guess he knew what was coming.

We finally got the test run after 2 feedings and 30 minutes, and she submitted it to the Pediatric Cardiologist for reading.  She said he’d likely call back on Monday with the results but we got a call from him this afternoon…and Caleb’s test was NORMAL.  This confirmed the follow-up he had in the original hospital visit, and means our little dude has a healthy little heart! He’s also been doing a lot better sleeping at night, normally 2-3 hours at a time, then a feeding and changing and repeat 2 times during the night.  The math has added up to some better sleep for his parents the past two nights so we hope it keeps up!  Here’s a little video from this morning…
