Wednesday Update!




Bree had a weight gain of .02 kg (now 3.08 kg), which translates out to 6 lbs 12 ounces! So tomorrow if there is a positive weight gain we will be going home. She has had two normal poops all on her own two days in a row so we are waiting for today's poop to explode out of her tiny little body. I have never been so happy to clean up a nasty explosive poop in my life!

Changes, changes, changes! We have changed rooms in the hospital. We are now in 315B because all of Bree's blood tests finally came back as good and clear. So, she is not contagious! Another change is that we got doctor orders from our pulmonologist to try Bree without oxygen. So she is sleeping right now with a heart rate of 135 and her oxygen saturation of 95%!!!! WOO HOO! So, it looks like we will be going home without oxygen. I cannot tell you how excited I am about that.


(Doesn't her little face look so beautiful without oxygen??)
Once again I am one very VERY proud Mama!
