kangaroo night

The day was pretty uneventful. Rosie is still off the vent and still no spells as of the time we left. She got to snuggle with her Momma. And we heard her cry it gets a little bigger each time. Still no open eyes, that will be next. Gonna go to bed early tonight got visiters coming tomorrow. will post more tomorrow.

still off vent

Rosie is still off the vent and she has had no spells since shes been off. Remember, spells are when she forgets to breathe. She also had another poop. Shes being a little wiggler today. Mom gets to hold her today since she didnt have any spells. Will take more pictures then. Waiting for the 4 o'clock changing and feeding for pics. Keep up the praying!!

poop

Rosie had her first poop today YAY She is still off the breathing machine and has had no spells today. Her phisical therapist came and saw her yesterday too and everything looks fine there too. She cried today too it was very tiny but we heard her. Daddy came today and got to hold her for the blanket change and got to clean her first poop. Well he helped anyway.

off the vent

They took Rosie off the vent today. And they have her face uncovered also. She is doing good on the blood gas so far. They will draw another one at 6. She has less tubes in her today it seem like. We might even get to hear her cry today. Her lights are dinging a little more on her machine, but it keeps stopping by itself.
We dont really know whyRosie came early. Mom tore her placenta at about 2 months and had been on bed rest but that was healing. Will write more later.

got to hold Rosie

Momma got to hold her baby today for the first time. How fun! She got to hold her for an hour. She got her head ct done today it was fine. Her light is off of her and her saran wrap is off also. In a few days she will get her first bath. Shes been keeping a good temp. She was being a little wiggler when we left.

resting on day 7

Sitting up at the hospital. Rosie is doing good today. She got all the lines out of her bellybutton now so now when the get blood they have to stick her heel. Mom got to change the diaper today lifting up and everything it went well. Momma says shes so tiny she was afraid to hurt her but she didnt. Rosie is being a good girl today no fussing. Shes resting comfortably on her belly now.

day 7

Well Rosie will be a week old tomorrow. All in all her first week has been good. She was a little restless today so they have her on morphine to help her rest. Shes doing good though. Her skin is looking better everyday, nice and pink now. Her room is getting homey looking with decorations and pictures. Shes such a sweetheart. We spent a few hours up there tonight. I want to mention her nurse Amy and say that she is just wonderful. She always comes and talks to us as soon as we get there she answers all our questions and also will talk to us about other stuff too. She always makes sure to ask if we need anything. Shes talks to Rosie to comfort her and makes sure she is as comfortable as can be. Thanks Amy!!
