Shocked SHUT UP!!!! If this happens Sandy, I'm sending her to you! And YOU ARE TO BLAME!!!!! LOL


She's doing good. Still weaning on the vent. I can't remember what I posted before so I'll post what I know and it may be a repeat.
No RSV which is great. But she does have Chronic Lung Disease from respitory(sp?) distress syndrome (RDS). No infection came back on the blood culture which is also good. They are getting some gunk from her lungs when they suction her and also some from her mouth. They say she may have a touch of a virus or something seeing as how nothing came back on her CBC w/diff. But she's still on room air oxygen and I think she likes the HFOV because it shakes her whole body and I think it soothes her.

Up to 1 pound 11 ounces as of last night! 5 more ounces and we hit the 2lb mark!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna tear that NICU down when she hits 2lbs! It's gonna be party time! That will be our first big milestone! Well that is unless shee comes completly off the vent before then (which I very highly doubt! But possible! Smile)

So far as of today she has spent 49 days in the NICU.

I don't know how you do it, my little girl spent 7 days in the NICU and it was so hard. You're really strong, your daughter takes after you =)
