37 weeks!

After one week on the vent, Miss Priss is now off! Woot! I seriously have a love/hate relationship with that thing! She's back on the CPAP machine and doing ok so far but she still has moments where she gets very tired from breathing. She still has a lot of secretions but they are suctioning frequently.

Feedings have also been increased to 37ccs and that's where we were a week ago. She's doing great on that so far. They also put it on the schedule to try her again with a another bottle by Sunday as long as she continues to improve on the CPAP. Her weight is now 5lbs 4oz! Our baby girl is getting so big!

I didn't get a pic today but I will try to get some tonight. Stay tuned.

Deja Vu All Over Again

Little Miss has been having more and more episodes throughout the day. The doctor said they are switching her back to the CPAP machine because she is just not comfortable and they are going to give her some caffeine to stimulate her. So far it doesn't look like she has an infection but they will keep testing her until she is over this. She will also remain on antibiotics for at least two more days.

We have CPR class at the hospital tonight and then we're going to hang with her and give her a stern talking to. :laugh:
