Sleep study

Justin had a sleep study done Monday evening because I beleive that he is suffering from sleep apena.  To confirm my diagnosis, the ENT doctor ordered a sleep study.  I stayed overnight with Justin at Children's hospital, and did not get much sleep.  When I came to work the next day, I felt like I was up all night with a newborn again. 

Since there were no clocks in our room, and I was not allowed to have my cell phone on, I had no concept of time.  If I had to guess, I would think that we had a nurse in our room once an hour adjusting something.  Below is the picture of most of his leads with the exception of the two on his chest.


Here is a close up of his adorable face so you can see the piece in his nose that I know she had to come in and adjust several times in the evening.  In addition to the nose piece, they were constantly adjusting the sensor on his finger that measures the oxygen in your blood .

Awww, the poor lil' guy! :-(

I hope he gets better soon. Hospital isn't fun, for children or parents.
