All is well. The nurse practitioner wanted to write orders to do away with the nasal canula! But..... then he realized that she needed her 2-month immunizations and thought she could use the extra oxygen support while dealing with the pain from those. So, maybe tomorrow?!
Still taking 6 feedings by herself, so we need to get those other 2 down and she will be so much closer to coming home!
Her crit (red blood cells) is still lower than they would like, but her retic count (shows how well her body is making red blood cells) is high, so it just has to do a little more catching up so that her crit can come up. They don't want to give her any more blood right now because that will tell her body that she doesn't need to make any red blood cells, so it will go on a little vacation. It's just one big cycle.
WOW!! 2 months!!
