bottles and beds

Rosie is doing great she is taking her bottles good. Right now its every other feeding so she doesnt get to worn out. She also got to go to a baby bed. She weighed 4.1 pds last night. Everything is happening fast this week we had to sign up for our CPR class. As that is a requirement for her discharge. So we are getting closer to the big day when she goes home. Thanks for all the nice comments and prayers everyone!!

off vapotherm

Rosie is off the vapotherm now the next step is getting in a crib and starting her on a bottle. Then she can think about coming home. Everyone got the sniffles this week so we are trying to stay away from Rosie so we dont get her sick. To my hubby you should check your yahoo tonight for messages.

34 weeks (gestational age)

Rosie is doing good. Shes getting back to her feedings and off the iv. They are trying the vapotherm on 2 again. hope that goes well. She hasnt gained any weight shes at 3.8 still so she hasnt lost any either so thats good. Shes at about half her feeding that she was on.

2 months old

happy 2 month birthday to Rosie

Rosie was 3.8 oz the the other day then she was 3.12 now shes back to 3.8. They tried to turn the vapotherm down then had to turn it all the way up to 4 today because she kept having spells and had to be bagged twice (forced by hand to breathe with the little blue bag) she still has the tube in her throat sucking air out. still no feedings and she was getting a blood transfusion when we left shes had an eventful couple of day Id say. So please remember yours prayers everyone thanks so much,. On a good note all the tests that are back are are normal with no infections anywhere.

bad day

Today has not been a very good day for Rosie. She had her immunizations yesterday and has gone down hill since. She had to have a spinal tap she has a tube in her throat to suck out air in her tummy, she had all feedings stopped she has to have a cath put in to test urine, she has an IV now too. Now its wait and see what all the tests show. She is looking a little pale and not very active. I hope everything goes ok. She had about 10 spells in the last 24 hours. Please pray for Rosie to get better. We were going to go home tomorrow because I have a class but now we might wait to see what happens. They have said that it is not because of her immunizations.

waiting to get off vapotherm

Rosie is doing great shes up to 3.8 oz. Shes having 26 mils of food and shes waiting to get her vapo therm turned down to 2 again. It didnt go so well last time so lets pray this time goes better. She cant start to bottle feed until shes off her vapo therm or at least down to 1. She is getting her first shots tomorrow they already got the baby aspirin ready for her.
