One week later...

and Miss Thang is like a whole new person! Last night, she was the strongest and most active I have EVER seen her! The doctors say there is one major way they can tell when babies are getting and when they are getting. They get cranky. When they are really sick, they're limp and lethargic and just lay there but as soon as they start feeling better they get super annoyed by being bothered all the time or by restraints of any kind. My daughter is no exception. She managed to squirm herself into a corner of her bed last night and she was fighting to get the CPAP off her face.

We got her out and she kept reaching for the tube and was pulling on it hard. I had to really restrain her but she did manage to pull it off once when I looked away for a second. As soon as we put it back on, she threw an enormous fit! Crying, back arching, foot flexing and red faced! She was mad! We don't like seeing her upset but hearing her use her lungs was awesome! :laugh:

She continued to improve throughout the night and they decided to put her out of her misery and get her back on the cannula shortly after midnight. She's much happier with that and she had a fantastic night. No breathing problems at all. God is gooooood!
