Last week Xavi had a trial on a new kind of CPAP connection. Called the Ram Cannula, it has the smaller facial attachment, but still gives the same CPAP pressure to help keep his lungs open and give oxygen flow. We liked the idea of this new attachment because it was smaller and more comfortable, and also because we could see more of his sweet baby face. However after a couple of days, Xavi needed to go back to the regular CPAP mask because he wasn't getting enough breathing support from the cannula. Disappointing that it didn't last, but still a hopeful sign of things to come.
