Yesterday they started her feeds back!!! However, its only neocate this time.. They will not add the breastmilk until she is up to full feeds :( She is handling her feeds well so far, but she is only getting 1cc (They started her out at .5 yesterday)... One whole cc... She seems to like it though. She smacks her little lips and drools when she is feeding so I think she knows whats happening.
Day before yesterday she was weighed and was 1185. Tonight she was 1190.
On the 21st she had a blood culture.. And another one yesterday.. As of earlier today none of them had grown back anything.
Her vent settings are super low
PIP 20
PEEP 4.5
RR 14
O2 21%
Tonight she was awake so much and looking around. Everytime she heard something she would try to turn her eyes toward the noise. Most nurses sedate her as soon as she starts wiggling so it was nice to have one that let her be herself for a while. She was happy. Heart rate was fine and sats were fine.. She was just having a little party in her bed ;)
Picture of her eyes open and looking around (There is a link to a video right below this picture)
Video of her looking all around
And did I even mention on my last post that I got to hold her again? I cant remember if I did or not.. If I didnt mention it.. I got to hold her the other day.. If I did mention it disregard this ;)

Hello,
I was one of the people worrying about you and your little girl. :)

I was so worried about your little girl. I am so happy to see she is doing good. I am hoping and praying that things continue to go good for her.
I'm so glad she's doing well. She's a beautiful little girl! All that gorgeous dark hair reminds me of my DS when he was born.
