Update

I spoke with Wyatt's pulmonologist last night about the results of his sleep study. He did not do well. Apparently there was conversation with the sleep lab and the pulm team about sending him to the ER during the study, but I wasn't privy to that information during the study (which, by the way, is super annoying). 

 

What does this mean? We have to determine the best way to treat his sleep apnea. It is either with high BiPAP settings or with a tracheostomy. We are waiting to get in with one of the sleep doctors to talk about next steps. I am hopeful with some time to process and after speaking with the sleep doctor, we will have some clarity. 

This wasn't the news we were hoping for, but it's Wyatt's reality and we will work through it.

    I wonder why they did not mention to you that they almost send your baby to the emergency room. Did you ask the pulmonologist or the sleep lab about what alerted them and more importantly what made them change that diagnosis? Please update us on what route you chose for Wyatt in regards to his BiPAP settings or a tracheostomy.
