Good News/ Bad News
Posted: 11-30-07 23:49pm

Well lets start with the bad news first so we can end on a good note!
Carly's whole right lung collapsed this evening! Dunno why, or what will come of it. They put her back up to a 100% O2 earlier this evening. So we've taken 1 step back.
Good news......She was switched over to the conventional vent this evening and is doing well with it! By 9pm they had got her O2 back down to 75% and slowly continuing to drop. Her blood gasses are still good. And she gained another ounce! Now weighing 1pound 1 ounce! And she still looks good!
Well they say 2 steps forward and 1 step back slowly gets you out of the NICU!
Still praying for you baby girl! Love you and miss you bunches! Love, Mom

No not tomorrow. But I did go a sneak a peek tonight. I was only there long enough to talk to Nurse Karen, pick up her dirly blankies to wash, and pump some milk. I looked at Carly through her lil "plastic bubble" but didn't touch her. I feel better so I couldn't resist. It was eating me up inside! I just HAD to go! I went earlier just to get storage bottles and didn't stop to see her so I HAD to go back tonight!!!!

OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! I went to this store at the hospital earlier today called The Milky Way to get one single tube and one single suction cap for my breast pump and can you belive they charged me 16 dollars!!!!!!! To make the parts would have been less than 2 dollars I bet!!!!!!!!! Such a rip off! But I HAD to have it!

I'm still finding glitter! Once in a while it just pops up out of no where! Today I had one speck of red glitter on my nipple! I thought the pump rubbed me till it broke the skin. I thought it was a speck of blood! Yeah that was till I turned and light hit hit. I had shinny boobies!!!!!! Laughing Laughing
