Sydney is stable this morning and doing well. She's at about the same rate on the vent but having longer periods of breathing on her own. As the hours go by, she gets more alert and active and she doesn't look miserable anymore.
We're just so anxious for her to be better and we're trying to not focus too much on the fact that she would have been home by Friday if this had not happened. When she was on the vent in the early days, I was at least able to hold her but because she's contagious we definitely can't take her out of the isolette. I would think she needs a snuggle now more than ever. It's a long week but this is what she needs to recover.
Her weight is the same and she's peeing a lot so we don't have a concern about her retaining fluid. They are still holding her feeds for now since even feeding by tube causes her to have to work hard to breathe. Hopefully, we will get there by the weekend.

It will soon that she is at home and you can snuggle her all day and night.
Soon enough Sydney will get the mommy and daddy snuggles again.
