Our little itty bitty has already impacted so many people based on the circumstances surrounding her birth to now. She's little but her purpose is great.
She's stable today and doing well on the vent. They were having some trouble weaning her during the night but now that she has rested for a bit, they managed to turn her settings down. That's a good thing. They have also restarted ALL her IV fluids that she was on in the early weeks and are still holding off on feedings for now. They are only doing a cranial ultrasound today to determine if there has been increase in the fluid that may have caused some pressure that affected her ability to breathe. The plan for the rest of the weekend is to not disturb her until absolutely necessary and give her some time to recuperate if rest is all she needs. The radiologist and neurologists will review the ultrasound on Monday and make decisions from there.
Thank you for all your prayers, phone calls and emails today. :love:

Hang in there Sydney, and stop giving mommy and daddy gray hairs!
oh my goodness thank you SOOOO much for your post - sorry for the recent, unnecessary drama going on, but I'm so thankful you found Lincoln's blog. I am sure you're going through a lot right now with Sydney...I can remember back to Lincoln's NICU time and can't even imagine the stress you're under. PLEASE...PLEASE...PLEASE feel free to contact me via email with any concerns or just a need for adult conversation. The NICU life is such a hard one. I'm so glad you found the BLOGSPHERE for the preemie world. I didn't know that it existed when Lincoln was first born. I sure wish I knew about this world early on. Please feel free to join the email/message board of micropreemie moms http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PreemieBlogMoms/ They are such a loving group of parents. So happy for you so far...Can't wait to read more.
Since the body heals while at rest, I am so glad the doctors are not doing anything till next week. Lil Miss Sydney is just taking some time to make everything right. God is good all the time! and he hears the prays of his people.

Rest up little girl and show us how strong you are! Prayers and hugs

Mom, Dad, and Sydney I'm thinking of you. I know they told me being in the NICU with a Preemie is like 1 step forward and 3 back sometimes. It's hard on the "bad days" but you have many good days to come. Be strong and know how loved you are.
sending you hugs and prayers...
