Well the NICU Dr. just called and said Natalie is doing great they want to turn down her O2 from 2 to 1.5 or 1 by tomarrow. Also she said that all today they are going to up her feedings from 10cc where it was yesterday to 15cc to 20cc all today.
Called the NICU and she is doing good. They are going to up her feeding a little bit and they turned her O2 from 3 to 2. She weighs 3lbs 14.6 oz so we are up .6oz from yesterday.
We went and seen her a few time today before we leave b/c I'm able to go home. They had moved her feeding tube from her mouth to her nose, they put the light on her due to having jaundice. We did get to hold her and feed her today also.
I called for an update later in the night they say she is doing good. Her feedings move from 5cc to 10cc and she seems to be able to digest it all. She will need to get to full feedings before coming home which are 25cc so we got a little ways to go still. Also they said they tried to take her of the oxygen pressure but she started to breath a little hard so they put it back on her. She is breathing on her own just needs the pressure to help keep her little aviolies open. So all and all she is doing good and it seems she is getting better every day. |
