See, all the girl needed was some rest.
All her labs came back better this morning, including her chest X-ray, which looked better. Not cleared up totally, but much less hazy.
She is up to 13 cc's for the next 2 feedings, then little miss piggy goes up to 14. As they up her feedings, they decrease the amount of lipids (fats) she gets. She's weighing in at 2 lb.s 10 1/2 ounces now.
She is still on the CPAP for now (ranging anywhere from 27-35 %), but I am okay with this. Other than the fact that she has to wear this ugly mask thing while she has it on, it's what's best for her right now. The doctor yesterday said that it is a little bit of a setback to go back to the CPAP, but sometimes babies her size just get tuckered out and need a little break, especially since she has been battling an infection and having the blood transfusion.
I think she looks great today, not puffy and just the perfect baby color. So far, it's a good day.
Oh, yay!! Good news! And you quit calling that sweetie "little miss piggy" -- Nana won't have it! Love, Nana
