Harper is clothed! YAY!! The first outfit was rather a traumatic experience for the both of us. She was not happy with me by the end of it, but she looked super cute (as always). Then we had to undress her for the nurse to weigh her (3 lbs. 8 oz.!!), and mommy decided that we were not going to attempt that outfit again, so we went to another outfit. Much better!! The first outfit was a gown and it was difficult to put it on over her head, she didn't like that, and I was by myself (the gown is a two person dressing job). The nurse told me (after the fact) that I should put the gowns on from her feet up and not go over her head. Well, we will try that next time.
Because she is now clothed, they just have her on air temperature in her isolette. Which means, they no longer have a probe on her monitoring her skin temperature 24/7. They think she is big enough and old enough to regulate her temp. without it being constantly monitored. Now, she will just have her temp. taken every 3 hours during her hands-on.
They dropped her down to .2 liter flow now, and she seemed to be doing rather well with it yesterday, so hopefully she will keep doing well with it.
They increased her feedings to 29 cc's, almost an ounce!
